People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 252 Writing History by One Person, I'm Serious About Revenge

The son is a wolf in the mountains, he will be rampant when he succeeds, his virtue is not worthy of his position, and he goes to Huangliang in a blink of an eye.

This is Zhang Yi's evaluation of Yang Xian, and it is also because of this doggerel that Yang Xian gained the title of Zhongshan Wolf.

Yang Xian hated that little Taoist to the bone, and it was also from this poem.

But when he discovered that this poem might become a prophecy, Yang Xian's calf trembled involuntarily.

"It's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence..."

Master Yang talked to himself, desperately trying to protect himself, and finally got into his carriage with the support of his family.

He was not in the mood to go to work in the Ministry of Education, so he went home.

Back home, Yang Xian still recalled the news of Zhang Yi's mother's death.

I would rather trust it to have it than to trust it to have nothing.

This incident really frightened Yang Xian, who paced back and forth at home.

Asked by the family's confidant, Yang Xian told the matter.

The man heard the words and said:

"My lord, could it be that the Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain cursed your lord?
In this matter, adults should go to the little Taoist with a pure heart and be submissive, maybe he can let you live? "

Yang Xian was furious when he heard the words, and scolded his family:

"I don't know if this little Taoist prophecy is true or not, how can I go to him to give in?
And if I am subdued, who else in this court can subdue me? "

"Then since my lord can't find Longhushan, I can only find other masters!
Not all the Taoist temples in the capital belong to Longhu Mountain. There is also a Quanzhen Temple next to the Yongshou Palace. Would you like to ask?

If not, adults can also go to Tianjie Temple to ask Master Huitan to suppress evil ways with Buddhism! "

Yang Xian heard that this is also a truth.

Regardless of whether it is a monk or a Taoist priest, breaking the curse of that kid is the real business.

He immediately asked someone to prepare a sedan chair and went directly to Tianjie Temple.

"Master Yang, do you want to ask for peace?"

At Tianjie Temple, Master Huitan listened to Yang Xian's appeal and fell into deep thought.

"Yes, I was cursed by the path of Longhu Mountain. I don't think about food and tea, and I can't sleep day and night. This monster is fierce. I want to seek safety in Tianjie Temple!"

Master Huitan hesitated when he heard the words.

If ordinary people come to him to pray for safety, he will obey.

But Yang Xian's identity is sensitive, and it is often difficult to handle such high-ranking officials.

Especially when he mentioned Longhushan, an unlucky name for Huitan when he thought of it, he was even more upset.

"It is rumored that His Majesty wants Song and his son to choose a place to study the history of the Yuan Dynasty... This Tianjie Temple is originally the place chosen by His Majesty!
But recently, His Majesty has been worrying a lot, and this matter has been delayed!
Master, if you don’t mind the truth and make up your own mind, let’s change the Japanese truth to mention it for you! "

Huitan was quite moved when he heard the words.

One year has passed since the founding of Daming.

The emperor asked Song Lian to prepare for the revision of Yuan history.

But the real work began, and the matter was delayed.

It was originally rumored that the emperor intended to handle this matter at Tianjie Temple, but the rumors never came to fruition.

Huitan was not in a hurry before, but now he is very concerned about this matter.

The reason was for him. Although it was a while before the Chinese New Year, the influence of Yongshou Palace, which is now known as Chaotian Palace, still hadn't ended.

After the New Year, at least [-]% of the incense in Tianjie Temple has been lost.

As the abbot of Tianjie Temple, Huitan has already smelled a hint of danger from the change of the incense.

In terms of survival alone, Tianjie Temple does not live on incense money.

The first temple in Nanjing, the temple has a large number of fields, which is the basis for the survival of the temple.

But incense is still the facade of a monastery.

This is the price paid by Tianjie Temple for the battle between Buddhism and Taoism during the Chinese New Year.

Huitan needs one thing very much now, to boost the Tianjie Temple.

Nothing can better reflect the status of Tianjie Temple as the No. [-] Temple of Ming Dynasty than the emperor's repair of Yuan history in Tianjie Temple.

Hui Tan was also quite anxious because the palace did not issue orders for a long time.

Since Yang Xian took the initiative to bring up the matter, Huitan went along with the flow.

"Since Mr. Yang is sincere, although our Buddhist sect has no way to break the curse, we are following the righteous way!

Master Yang, you can take this "Xian Mi Yuan Tong to become a Buddha's Mind" and recite it every day, and you will feel it yourself! "

"This……"

Yang Xian is not a Buddhist, and he is even less interested in Buddhist practice.

Master Huitan saw Yang Xian's hesitation and said:
"If your lord still has doubts, the poor monk can recommend a high Taoist to you. Speaking of which, he is also from Jiangxi, but he is not a member of the Dragon and Tiger Mountain. On the contrary, this person has a lot to do with Quanzhen Taoism. He also practices Jingming Taoism, etc. The Taoism of many Taoist schools is a first-class expert!
If your lord is interested, you can introduce him to the emperor, or invite him to Beijing! "

When Yang Xian heard it, it was reliable, so he immediately responded.

"Master Huitan, don't worry, regarding the matter of compiling history, the truth will definitely be mentioned to the emperor..."

Yang Xian took the book and left satisfied, and when Hui Tan went out from him in person, his little apprentice came out from nowhere.

"Master, this is a great opportunity, why do you push the prime minister to others?"

Huitan turned around with a half-smile and asked:

"Do you think it is a good thing that Yang Xian found the poor monk?"

His rhetorical question stunned the little monk, isn't it a good thing?

But he didn't dare to ask, because since the master asked back, then things must be different from what he thought.

"You are still too young!
His Majesty has long decided that Tianjie Temple will be the place where the history of the Yuan Dynasty is repaired, but why there is no news about this matter after the Chinese New Year.

The poor monk knew that this was His Majesty's dissatisfaction with the poor monk and Longhushan for the loess of the ancient battlefield...

Your Majesty is dissatisfied, not because of poor monks fighting.

But the poor monk lost too badly! "

The little monk was puzzled:
"Does Your Majesty want Master to win?"

"No, it doesn't matter whether our Tianjie Temple wins or not, in His Majesty's heart!
However, Tianjie Temple is a temple raised by His Majesty. If we lose too badly, he will think we are incompetent.

It's a pity that our Tianjie Temple, and even the Buddhist sect, lost miserably in the Taoist struggle during the Chinese New Year!
The Daomen of the World, because of the conferring of gods, at least [-]% of their followers have increased!
Zhang Normal is destined to become a famous Taoist in the history books, but the poor monk wants to leave a stain on the history books and become his stepping stone to Longhu Mountain! "

Thinking of the cold war during the Chinese New Year, the little monk was ashamed and indignant at the same time.

But no matter how much he wanted to brazenly comfort his master, he still knew that he was really beating him according to the Tianjie Temple.

The plan of exchanging the pharmacist for the king of medicine disappeared as the popular lyrics of "Xiao Zhang, sit down..." spread.

Master's little scheme was beaten up repeatedly, and he was basically powerless to fight back. Speaking of which, it is really embarrassing.

"So, if the poor monk meddles in Mr. Yang's affairs again, it's not impossible!

But if Master Yang fights with Longhushan, if he loses!
The poor monk will appear even more incompetent in the eyes of His Majesty!

Rather than that, why not recommend him to that person, that Taoist brother is indeed well-known, and he is a well-established Taoist!

If His Majesty can trust him a little, at least he can weaken his trust in Longhushan!

If they can fight, let's just sit back and watch the tigers fight,

For the current plan, the most important task of the poor monk is to quickly implement the matter of Xiu Yuan History.

Send a letter to the poor monk, Mr. Song hasn't been a guest in the temple for a long time! "

Song Lian is the main person in charge of helping the emperor compile histories, and this person makes friends with Xi like, and is also a gentleman's friend with Huitan!
Huitan finally couldn't help it, and wanted to find Song Lian for information.

At this time, Mr. Song, whom Huitan was talking about, was reporting to Zhu Yuanzhang in the palace.

"Your Majesty, the preparations for the revision of the Yuan History are not yet ready. I would like to ask Your Majesty for advice..."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand:
'The most important thing in history books is to seek the truth!

As a king, I will not inquire or interfere with the specific work of compiling history. Just remember, I will not give you much time!
The imperial court has too many things to deal with, so there is no need to waste too much time on the affairs of the Mongols!
Song Lian, I will give you half a year at most...'

When Song Lian heard this, his expression changed drastically.

Half a year is too hasty.Although the change of dynasty between the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty was considered smooth, the loss of a large number of classics is not serious.

However, compiling history is not so easy. If the time is too short, the things produced will not look good.

As a historian, Song Lian felt honored to be able to preside over the revision of the history of the Yuan Dynasty.
If the history of Yuan Dynasty is not well done, isn't that a slap in the face?
It's just that he didn't dare to refute the emperor's order for the time being, so Mr. Song could only leave the palace depressed.

After leaving the palace, he found out that something happened to Zhang Yi's family, and hurried to Zhang Yi's mansion.

……

"Yang Xian went to Tianjie Temple? Huitan didn't advise him?"

After Song Lian left, a secret performance was also sent to the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at it and asked Ling who delivered the package.

Ling said:
"It should be that he didn't participate, but my subordinates saw Master Huitan delivering a letter to Mr. Song's house..."

"This Huitan, he is in a hurry!"

Zhu Yuanzhang put down his pen and laughed.

Zhu Biao on the side heard the words and answered:

"Father, does this mean that you don't want to revise Yuan History in Tianjie Temple?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said:

"Not there, where else?
It's just that I'll let him hang out first, and then kill him for his vigor! "

"But..." Old Zhu remembered another matter, he asked Ling to speak out before saying to Prince Zhu Biao:
"The matter of Zhang Yi is more difficult!

Now that his mother is gone, should I allow Ding You? "

Old Zhu's face was a little guilty, all goodness and filial piety are the first,

According to reason, he should allow Zhang Yi to go back to observe his filial piety at this time, but the current lack of manpower in the imperial court makes him very embarrassed.

Moreover, that brat Zhang Yi accidentally put an eyedrop on him.

He said Zhang Yi's demonic words to confuse the crowd, but Zhang Yi's mother left.

This slap made Lao Zhu feel a little uncomfortable, and also made him look a little bit heartless.

Although he knew that Zhang Yi was in a coma, he immediately sent the imperial physician there.

But he can think that when Zhang Yi wakes up, he must be the first to resign to him.

"Father, filial piety is the first priority. If you don't allow Mr. Zhang Ding You, I'm afraid you will be infamous!"

Zhu Biao didn't give face because Lao Zhu was his own father, and directly opposed Zhu Yuanzhang's plan.

"My son knows that Mr. Zhang, a courtier with both civil and military skills, can indeed add support to the court, and my father has already arranged for him!

But this act of filial piety is also a major matter, even if the emperor forbids it, Mr. Zhang has no intention of handling government affairs, isn't it the same?
And, most importantly..."

Zhu Biao paused and said:
"The younger brother of the Zhang family was famous in the capital last year because of the Confucian mansion. Apart from the Zhongshan wolf incident, another thing is to predict the death of Mr. Zhang..."

Zhu Yuanzhang shuddered.

Zhang Yi said that if you get rich, you may not necessarily get rich, but Zhang Yi said that you are unlucky, so most of them will still be unlucky.

Zhu Yuanzhang understood what Zhu Biao meant. If Zhang Yi's prediction came true, Zhang Yi might not live long.

If Lao Zhu left him, it would probably be useless.

"It happens that I haven't seen him for a while, so go see him, I want to ask him about Japan...

Where is that kid? "

Zhu Yuanzhang finally made up his mind to meet Zhang Yi.

Years later, Zhang Zhengzheng won the emperor's permission, so he didn't go to Beidi for the time being, but returned to Longhu Mountain to rectify a school affairs.

The most important point is to let the Taoist Temple in the world promote simplified characters.

Taking the grounding of Taoism as a means to compete with Buddhism in the future, Zhang Yi's so-called platformization and the method of linking up with the interests of the world were promoted by Lao Zhang.

A "Nongzheng Quanshu", Zhang Yi combined ancient books and added a lot of modern agricultural knowledge to distribute.

Becoming a Daoist sect is the key to joining the WTO and guiding the people to produce.

In addition, a huge catalog of dung pill production published by Longhushan is basically engraved on the wall of every Taoist temple in Zhengdao.

This down-to-earth way of preaching quickly won the hearts of many people.

Lao Zhang's reputation has also risen because of the sect reform.

Because of the secret support of the imperial court, the promotion of simplified Chinese characters has become very smooth because of the platform of Longhushan.

At the beginning, those scholars were also interested in Taoist priests running schools, but Zhang Normal's content in promoting simplified characters was basically fixed on all strange and obscene things.

Most people sneered and stopped paying attention to this matter.

Lao Zhu welcomes this reform, because at least the promotion of simplified characters has indeed accelerated.

Zhang Yi also completed part of his original plan to reduce the illiteracy rate and promote technology.

As for the so-called sage doctrine, he didn't care much about it.

When Lao Zhu lost control of Longhushan at the beginning, Zhang Yi also took precautions.

People who are now in the same order, three sentences are not far from the emperor, and five sentences must mention Xuanwu.

The Taoist priests in Longhushan always blamed the emperor for any credit, which made Lao Zhu feel a little embarrassed even if he wanted to be on the alert.

However, when Lao Zhang left the capital, Deng Zhongxiu, the former Yongshou Palace and now the host of Chaotian Palace, lost his supporters, and he is still trying to adapt to his role and establish his authority.

Zhang Yi also knew that this little Brother Deng was young and couldn't control the scene.

Therefore, as the direct descendant of Longhu Mountain, he often stays in Chaotian Palace.

But he rejected Deng Zhongxiu's idea of ​​inviting him to Chaotian Palace, and still lived in Qingxin Temple.

So Lao Zhu couldn't figure out where Zhang Yi was at this moment. After learning that he was at the Qingxin Temple, the carriages of Lao Zhu's father and son had stopped at the entrance of the Qingxin Temple half an hour later.

Lao Meng succeeded Deng Zhongxiu as the guardian of the Taoist temple.

"What are you doing?"

After going to the backyard, the Zhu family's father and son saw Zhang Yi writing hard in the study.

Lao Zhu leaned over to take a look, his face changed slightly:

"Are you writing Yuanshi?"

Zhu Yuanzhang is like seeing a ghost, although he knows that Zhang Yi can see the future,

It can be seen that he wrote the history of the Yuan Dynasty by himself, which is too much...

Besides, why is he writing Yuanshi when he has nothing to do?

Zhu Yuanzhang asked by himself, and Zhang Dissent was his own, so he smiled:
"Of course it's revenge for those monks in Tianjie Temple!"
