People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 279 The so-called veto power, who wouldn't pretend to be sick
Zhang Yi understands that Lao Zhang's uncomfortable point is always above the word of benefit.

The Longhushan family has a big business, if the opening of monk and Taoist taxation is opened, it will naturally damage the interests of a big landlord like him.

If he was not a time traveler, Zhang Yi himself would not be indifferent to this matter.

However, he provoked the matter, and he also has his own goals to implement.

Lao Zhang felt uncomfortable, so he wanted to do something, at least to prove that he had worked hard.

Even if I can't succeed, I still give it to him and give my comrades an explanation.

Zhang Yi said that he could lift the table, what's going on?

Zhang Normal quietly waited for Zhang Yi to give him an explanation, but Zhang Yi didn't hold back, and said directly:

"If dad can accept a premise, that is, the emperor deliberately chopped off the privileges of monks and Taoists to continue for hundreds of thousands of years, so that this matter can be negotiated!"

"can!"

Zhang Normal did not hesitate in this matter, and directly affirmed it.

Although he is not extremely intelligent, he is definitely not stupid.

If Zhang Yi was the only one here to give advice, he would probably be dubious.

But don't forget, this matter was actually discussed in front of the emperor. Although Zhang Normal was afraid of Zhang Yi's outspokenness, he still had something to thank Zhang Yi for this matter.

Don't look at Zhu Yuanzhang just laughing and not expressing his position throughout the whole scene.

But he didn't express his position, he had clearly expressed his attitude.

The emperor also supported the abolition of the privileges of monks and Taoists.

Zhang normal has no choice, he can only choose to accept or not.

What if you don't accept it?

Seeing that Lao Zhang categorically agreed with the first premise, Zhang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

To persuade the old man to flip the table, the premise is that the old man is determined to change the emperor.

What he is most afraid of is that Lao Zhang still has a little fantasy, and then looks forward and backward, but when his father encounters big things, he is still very decisive.

"Well, since Daddy agrees and the fate cannot be changed, let's talk about another matter!

Just like Master Huitan wanted to take credit for our family, since those Confucian scholars also want to do the same thing, we naturally have to return it!

But Longhushan has no power and no power, so it is a fantasy to retaliate against them!

However, with the influence of the father, it is still possible to want bad things. ! "

"Ok?"

Lao Zhang felt that his brain was not enough.

"They have nothing to trouble us, they are nothing more than being beaten and cried by the emperor, and feel wronged!
So I think we are easy to handle, let us come out and top the bag!

In fact, what is their appeal? It is to obtain the same privileges as ours. These privileges do not depend on whether they become bureaucrats, but belong to the identity of scholars themselves, which is different from the power of ordinary people!
When the emperor refused to give it, they cried, pointing to the children next door and saying, why are we so aggressive and don’t have the power, but those scumbags next door have it?

Or, you give me the same privileges as them, or even better rights than them.

Or, you beat up the scum next door and let me vent my anger! "

Zhang Yi's metaphor was extremely vivid, and Lao Zhang's blood pressure suddenly rose.

They are those innocent scumbags.

If these people had nothing to ask for, but simply disliked the monk's way, Lao Zhang might not be so angry.

After all, Buddhism and Taoism have been around for thousands of years, and they have long been used to being slapped by high-ranking officials from the scholar-official class from time to time.

Based on their own worldview and values, those people often find trouble with Buddhism and Taoism.

Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, also in this environment of loving and killing each other, absorb and grow from each other to achieve the current balance.

If you are really out of public interest, Zhang normal can bear this tone.

But if you can't get the emperor to ask for it, you drag yourself and others into the water, that is deceiving people too much.

"So, we can't make these people feel better, we can't take a slap for nothing, right?

So let's just mess up their affairs as well, everyone overturn the table, no one wants to eat the food on the table! "

"You don't make up your mind, do you?"

When Zhang Yiyi said to lift the table, Lao Zhang was a little scared!
Zhang Yibai glanced at his father and said:
"Where do you want to go?

Since the emperor fanned the flames and sat and watched the turmoil, in fact, the emperor also had concerns about the demands of the scholars!

But scholars are different from us, they still have a high probability of making the emperor compromise!

But if Dad, you use your influence to disrupt the situation and mess up this matter, it will make His Majesty happy instead!
To put it bluntly, if you are a leader of Taoism, if you really want to achieve one thing, you don't have that ability, but if you want to disturb one thing, then you are more than enough!
Anyway, everyone can't get it, and both sides will suffer!
But from a selfish point of view, His Majesty will remember Longhushan's sacrifice! "

"You mean to let Pindao take the initiative to agree to the emperor's proposal... No, if Pindao does this, he will be scolded to death by his colleagues in the world..."

Zhang normal shook his head, he still wants to hang out in this circle, how can he kneel down on his own initiative?
Zhang Yi said:
"Of course not to do this now, so my son told you to eat melons first, and if the troubled emperor doesn't express his opinion for a day, these courtiers will dance more happily!

The fire wasn't burning hot enough, and everyone's anger didn't come out!

When they really burn the eminent monks of Buddhism and Taoism, if you lift the table again, you will not kneel down, but help everyone vent their anger!
At that time, everyone will not despise you, but thank you..."

Old Zhang: ...

What Zhang Yi said was highly executable.

But out of the intuition between father and son, he always felt that this child seemed to be hiding something from him?

Zhang Yi's enthusiasm for the matter of flipping the table is far higher than fighting for the interests of the Taoist sect.

Why does this guy feel that just watching the excitement is not a big deal?
Zhang Yi didn't notice at all, he showed a little chicken feet.

He excitedly said:

"The point is, even if this is done, those Confucianists won't have much hatred for you!

They were the ones who provoked this incident, so we can at most be a passive counterattack!
If this happens, Song Lian will also attract most of the hatred!
To be respected by the same people will not cause much trouble to Longhushan!
This is a lucrative deal. "

Lao Zhang sighed, but Zhang Yi finally convinced him.

In any case, since there is no room for redemption, revenge is naturally the only option.

He himself is also holding back a fire, the past two years for Longhushan have been really unlucky.

Especially since this year, he has been making villains non-stop.

Fortunately, he has a good son. No matter what difficulties he encounters, Zhang Yi always has a lot of unconstrained ideas in his little head, leading Longhushan to overcome obstacles.

Old Zhang looked at little Zhang Yi with a warm light in his eyes.

Blessed by the ancestors, it is his normal luck that Longhushan can give birth to Lin'er.

After calming down his mood, Lao Zhang asked another question:

"Then how will the poor deal with Liu Yuanran?"

Now that he decided to listen to Zhang Yi and bear it, there is a practical problem that needs to be solved, and that is how to refuse.

Yingtian Mansion's sects of monks and Taoists have long been raging with public opinion.

When Lao Zhang came to Yingtian Mansion, it's no wonder those people didn't ask him to come out.

If Lao Zhang is willing to stand out, it is not in the interests of Longhushan. Anyway, he has already figured out the emperor's intentions. The tax payment of monks and Taoists is a certainty, so what is there to argue about?

But if he doesn't show up, he will be underestimated by his colleagues in the world, and it will also damage the interests of Longhushan.

Zhang Yi doesn't need to think about how his colleagues in Taoism and Buddhism think of him. With Lao Zhang's identity here, how much face is needed?
Zhang Yi had been prepared for a long time, and he gave Lao Zhang an idea.

Hearing this, Zhang Normal looked at him in a daze.

As expected, this kid's tricks are getting stronger and stronger. This method not only takes care of his own reputation, but also Longhushan guarantees that he can stay out of the matter.

"It's not too late, the poor will do it now..."

Zhang Normal was overjoyed, he got up and left the Pure Heart Temple.

……

Zhang Zhenren has entered Beijing.

On the second day, the news about Lao Zhang's entry to Beijing immediately spread among monks and Taoists.

For a moment, the Chaotian Palace where he stayed became the focus of Yingtian Mansion.

All the monks and Taoists are looking forward to him, hoping that he can represent Buddhism and Taoism and fight with those Confucian scholars.

In a small Taoist temple in the capital, Liu Yuanran had a complicated expression. The news of Lao Zhang's entry into the capital made him a little bit disappointed, but also a little bit excited.

He held a volume of blood book in his hand, which was a ten thousand character book signed by Ying Tianfu's monks and Taoists.

Lao Zhang came to Yingtian, which represented that the monks and Taoists finally had a leader who could stand up and speak out for them.

Regardless of the various sects of Taoism and Buddhism, they all hope that he can stand up.

As for the disappointment, it was time for his own performance to come to an end.

As a Taoist who took the initiative to stand up for Buddhism and Taoism during this turmoil, Liu Yuanran has already gained a great reputation at a young age.

Whether it is the three major temples of Buddhism or the successors of various sects of Taoism, they all appreciate him.

This political turmoil has earned him enough prestige, but it's a pity that he still lost some status after all, and this last blow can only be handed over to others.

"Senior brother, the credit for our hard work must be handed over to Daoist Zhang of Longhu Mountain. I am not willing to give it to my brother!"

Behind Liu Yuanran was the voice of his junior brother complaining.

"There's nothing to be reconciled to. The relationship between our Jingming Sect and Longhu Mountain is not bad. When Master went to Longhu Mountain, Master Zhang also treated Master very politely!
This is the good relationship between the Jingming Sect and the Tianshi Mansion, and it cannot be broken just because of a petty gain!
However, this blood book is not easy to accept. The person in the palace who presents this blood book with unknown intentions is sure to gain the favor of his comrades, but he will also follow the calamity that His Majesty left behind!

Your senior brother, I want to face Thunder, but I am not qualified!
I can only ask Daoist Zhang to negotiate..."

Liu Yuanran saw the position of his junior, turned around and warned:
"Could it be that you have prejudice against Longhushan just because Master Yang invited us to Beijing?"

His junior brother was spotted at a glance, and embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Master Yang is our benefactor, the benefactor asked us to help him solve the problem, we just do it...

But don't forget that we have another layer of identity, that is, monks!

If monks can avoid karma, try not to get involved.

He has some grievances with Longhushan, but it's not our grievances, don't confuse the two emotions,
I know that when you came to this capital, you were fascinated by the colorful world, and you want to stay here even more!

Can……"

Liu Yuanran's preaching, his younger brother refused to accept, could not help retorting:

"But brother, after you came to Yingtian, you have changed a lot...

You told the younger brother not to touch karma, but you are also calculating..."

Liu Yuanran smiled when he heard the words:
"Brother is indeed calculating, but his starting point is different from yours.

You have come to Yingtian for so long, do you know what happened to Master Huitan? "

The priest nodded.

"Master Huitan realized the way of Buddhism in the human world, and asked the emperor for guidance, and traveled around the world following the teaching of Longhushan!

However, unlike Zhang Zhenren who traveled to the north, the mage left Yingtian, and the first thing he went to was Ziyang Temple!
With Master Yang Xian's invitation, he asked Master to come out of the mountain!
The master saw his intentions and didn't want to separate from Longhushan, so he refused!

But in the end the master sent Pindao to Yingtian, do you know why? "

"why?"

The little Taoist priest was attracted by Liu Yuanran's words and humbly asked for advice.

"Master Huitan is an eminent monk!
Even if he became the leader of the Buddhist sect, he didn't have the pretensions of an eminent monk. When Pindao saw him in Ziyang Watch, he didn't even wear a decent monk's robe!

But such an eminent monk, even if he is fully enlightened, still goes to Ziyang temple to persuade his master to come to Beijing!
What is his intention, in fact, everyone knows it well, it is nothing more than hoping that Master can subdue Longhu Mountain.

Let the Daomen fight among themselves...

You are clearly merciful and look down on false fame, but you still plan on my way, do you know why? "

"Junior brother doesn't know..."

"Because everyone wants to fight for the power to educate!
As a cultivator, you can be indifferent to fame and wealth, and you can ignore fame and fame!

Immortal Buddha surpasses cause and effect, but still needs earthly incense?
Is the fairy Buddha greedy for that little incense?

In fact, it is not, behind the incense is power, it is enlightenment...

Even if the immortals are at ease, the Buddha sits in the pure land.

They can't let the truth they realized become annihilated in the world...

Inheritance of enlightenment is no longer a personal interest, but the common interest of the entire sect!
Therefore, Master Huitan wants to fight, even if he does not hesitate to travel far, he must come to Ziyang Temple and work hard.

The master devoted himself to cultivating immortals, but he saw Master Huitan's intentions and rejected him!
But I can't help but send me to Yingtian Mansion to compete for the position of Xuanjiao Academy!
This is not because the senior brother is greedy for power, nor is it that the master is unable to see through and insists on jumping into Master Huitan's trap.
Indeed, the word "education"...

Let me wait and have to fight! "

The little Taoist listened in a cloud of confusion, seemed to understand, but also didn't seem to understand.

Liu Yuanran shook his head and smiled:
"I don't understand, let's discuss it slowly in the future, let's go visit Zhang Zhenren first!"

The two brothers and sisters adjusted their makeup and went out.

When he reached the gate of Chaotian Palace, Liu Yuanran found that there were still many comrades who appeared at the gate of Chaotian Palace by coincidence.

Among these people were Taoists and monks.

Basically, the people who can appear here are all prominent figures in Ying Tianfu.

The emperor banned monks and Taoists, and ordinary Taoists and monks were not allowed to go out without special permission.

Even if some nobles were found and asked for permission, it was a special matter for a special matter.

So there are so many people gathered at the gate of Chaotian Palace today, it can be seen that everyone is really anxious.

"It's Daoist Liu!"

Liu Yuanran recently took advantage of the special permission Yang Xian gave him to travel around the capital.

He has friendship with most of the monks and priests present.

"Why do you all come here, don't need to say too much!

Pindao, fellow Taoists, please join me in seeking to see Daoist Zhang! "

Everyone present nodded and prayed to Chaotian Palace together.

Deng Zhongxiu looked haggard and received everyone.

But they didn't see Zhang Normal, because according to the information given by Chaotian Palace.

Lao Zhang is sick!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

　Ask for a monthly pass!
