Chapter 489

It was already daylight, Ye Xun looked at the ruins in front of him, and the anger in his heart could no longer be described in any words.

If Qin Liangyu hadn't smelled the gunpowder fuse in advance, he might have been buried under the ruins now.

Although the brothers of the Qin family were successfully rescued, Qin Liangyu was seriously injured and is still in a coma.

Qin Minping, Qin Bangping, Qin Yiming, and Qin Gongming brothers were going crazy after knowing that Qin Liangyu was seriously injured, and they were arresting people everywhere in the city.

No need to ask, the person who dares to do this and has the ability to do it must be the remnants of the King of Shu.

The mourning hall of the King of Shu's family has not been evacuated yet, but now it has been surrounded by the Qin family's army again. If it were not for the status of the King of Shu's mansion, the Qin family brothers would have planned to arrest everyone for interrogation.

At this moment, the city of Chengdu is full of turmoil. All people entering and leaving are subject to strict interrogation. Soldiers patrolling the streets pass by from time to time.

After Sun Dong received the news, he was almost scared to death. He was the one most responsible for such a big incident, but it seems that he cannot be completely blamed. After the former governor Zhuge Xiu was arrested, no one lived here. Someone had been sent to search, and there was no problem. No one thought that there would be explosives buried under the flower hall of Zhuge's house.

At this moment, Sun Dong was kneeling behind Ye Xun. Based on Sun Dong's understanding of Ye Xun, the more silent Ye Xun was, the more serious the problem was.

In this era, Ye Xun is the one who uses the most gunpowder, but now he almost died under the gunpowder. This cannot but be said to be a great irony.

After a while, Ye Xun said slowly, "Any clues?"

"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish him!"

Sun Dongtou didn't dare to raise his head and said, so far, many people have been arrested, but no valuable clues have been found at all.

"Remove all the people! If we go on like this, we won't get any results if we get rid of the disturbing people."

Now that the matter has come to an end, it is useless to blame Sun Dong. The most important thing is to catch the person who planned this matter as soon as possible, otherwise it is uncertain where this guy will emerge from again.

Sun Dong promised to stand up, and before he could turn around to leave, he saw Qin Minping walking quickly.

"Elder-in-law, I have a clue. According to an old family member of the Shu Palace, the Shu King has a personal bodyguard. After the Shu King died, no one has seen him again."

Ye Xun frowned, thinking what kind of clue is this?Shen Sheng said: "Do you know what his name is?"

Qin Minping shook his head, spread his hands and said, "I've asked several people, but I don't know his name."

There is such a person beside the King of Shu?Some people know his existence, but no one knows his name. Obviously, all the secret affairs of the King of Shu are done by this person, and such a person is bound to be loyal to the King of Shu.

Ye Xun glanced at Sun Dong who was on the side. Although he didn't say anything, Sun Dong already knew what to do. After bowing again and saluting, he turned and strode away.

So far, Ye Xun hasn't said a single word of complaint. Even so, Sun Dong's face still has a hot feeling. He has been under Ye Xun for more than two years, and he has never been so embarrassing.

At this moment, Sun Dong had already made up his mind, after catching this man, he had to skin him.

What happened at Ye Xun's temporary residence quickly subsided as the officers and soldiers withdrew, as if nothing had happened, and everyone was still doing what they were supposed to do.

Ye Xun also quickly devoted himself to his daily work, clearing the land, opening free schools, and arranging the seedlings going down the mountain. There are too many facts that he has to worry about every day.

Soon, even he seemed to have forgotten that someone had been assassinated.

As the date of the Dharma Conference approached, eminent monks from the Central Plains who had received invitations, as well as living Buddhas and lamas from the snowy area also gathered in Chengdu.

The place of the puja was set at Zhaojue Temple, and the meditation room for monks to place orders in the temple was quickly overcrowded, and monks who came late had to stay in the inn.

For a while, the streets of Chengdu were all red and yellow, which became a beautiful landscape on the streets of Chengdu.

Although Ye Xun does not believe in Buddhism, as a representative of the imperial court and the initiator of this puja, he still has to come to worship the Buddha from time to time and discuss some things with Master Abbot.

Although Ye Xun is quite capable of collecting money, he is not stingy when using it on the army or the common people, but asking him to donate to the temple is as laborious as cutting his flesh.

After pinching his nose and donating two thousand silver coins, his heart ached for several days.

Little did they know that the two thousand silver coins hadn't caught the attention of the great monks at all. If it wasn't for Ye Xun's identity, no one would even pay attention to him.

It is said that the dog's eyes look down on people, and the Buddha's eyes also look at people's dishes!
Ye Xun's attitude towards the monks didn't seem to be aware of it. He called this puja with a certain political purpose. If it wasn't for this, he would have planned to liquidate the monks' temple property.

In the Zen room of the abbot of Zhaojue Temple, Ye Xun sat opposite the abbot, Master Hongzhi, with a pot of tea steaming on the table in the middle.

The expression on Hongzhi's face was a little indifferent, because he had never seen such a stingy court official.

Ye Xun said with a smile on his face: "What do you think of the master in the snow area?"

"The environment in the snow area and the living habits of the herdsmen are completely different from my Han people in the Central Plains. I feel that Eunuch Ye should focus more on the humanities of the Central Plains. If my father-in-law is not coming today, I will also visit the door to ask for an interview. Zhaojue Temple has been around for thousands of years. The ancient temple has been in disrepair for a long time, and there are many”

Ye Xun interrupted Hongzhi's words with a wave of his hand. Ye Xun figured out that the great monk was blaming him for meddling in his own business. Since you insist on making yourself uncomfortable, you can't blame me.

"Master, I also want to ask you something. No matter how brightly the Buddha's body is painted and how large the temple is, can it be eaten as food? As far as I know, apart from gentry and officials, monasteries have the most land in all places, but every disaster Years ago, but I have never seen your temple take out a grain of grain to help the victims, can master explain to me what is the reason?"

What Ye Xun said was merciless, Master Hongzhi's fat face flushed instantly, but he couldn't find a word of rebuttal.

As Ye Xun said, there is a lot of land in the temple, and the monks themselves do not farm the land, they sublease it to the nearby people, and the monks are only responsible for collecting the rent.

This has been handed down for thousands of years. Hongzhi didn't think there was anything wrong, and he never even thought about it. Today, when Ye Xun said it mercilessly, his first thought was, Is there something wrong with this?

"Eat without tilling, and make clothes without weaving. My Buddha is merciful with my mouth open and shut. Why didn't I see where your compassion is?"

"To be honest, the most important thing I need is silver, but my silver will be spent on those soldiers who are loyal to the country, and will be used to improve the lives of the people, and will never be used to show you."

"The 2000 taels of silver are used to entertain eminent monks from all over the world. Later, the guild will send people to check the account. If there is a slight discrepancy, don't blame me for being rude."

After Ye Xun said that, he threw up his sleeves and walked out. People come out with respect. Since you don't know respect, how can I be a person who is used to children? .
