[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

Chapter 158 Buddhism is originally a pure place, and there is nothing to do to attract dust

Li Changqing is used to being at ease, but after he was arrested and locked up in the small black room for half a day, he couldn't bear it anymore, and clamored to explain everything.When he mentioned the person to King Yong, all the things about Ziyun Temple were immediately explained clearly. At the beginning, Ziyun Temple was only used as Li Changqing's own sex hunting place, but he himself did not expect that it would become bigger and bigger, attracting Rich businessmen and dignitaries in Yicheng and even several surrounding cities rushed in and out.I haven't calculated the money I earned in these years. Li Changqing himself doesn't care about money. There are only a few hundred thousand in hand.

Although Li Changqing never publicly declared that Ziyun Nunnery was under his cover, everyone in Yicheng acquiesced and was willing to give him a little favor, and would not make excuses to deliberately embarrass him.When it was really dirty, I also took into account the face of the capital and endured it.

Although it's not a real relationship, Li Changqing can't be wronged if he can be dealt with.Without him, Ziyun nunnery might still be a place of pure cultivation. Even if there are struggles and desires inside, it will not become the golden cave and gentle town it is now.

As for the other officials and dignitaries in Yicheng, because they only entered Ziyun Nunnery to enjoy beauties, this was not much different from visiting a brothel, and they were not directly involved with Ziyun Nunnery, so King Yong could not use this as an excuse to punish them.If you have to investigate, you can also find out many other dirty things, but who will handle the government affairs of the city at that time, and where can you find so many suitable people to fill in at a time?

In the end, it was just a beating and a one-year salary penalty, so that they can understand themselves and cultivate themselves, and each submit an apology, so that they can learn from the painful experience and reflect on themselves.In this way, officials big and small in the city are really relieved. As long as they are not dismissed from office and exiled, that's fine, that's fine.I thought Prince Yong, the stern-faced prince, would investigate thoroughly, but I didn't expect that he would just stop there. I was really shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.As for the fine of one year's salary, please forgive your sins, that is as simple as being bitten by a mosquito.

After the Yicheng incident was over, King Yong took Li Changqing back to Beijing, waiting for the emperor to issue an order to punish him.As for whether the emperor wants to use this to beat the prince's lineage again, anyway, the person has already been delivered to him, and whether the emperor uses it is his own business, and King Yong is only responsible for sending him off.

When King Yong returned to Beijing to present the criminal evidence of Puji Temple and Ziyun Nunnery and others, the emperor was furious and denounced the Buddhist scum, and ordered all places to strictly investigate temples and nunneries, large and small, to the end.All those who committed crimes and acted indiscriminately were all cleared out of Buddhism, and the eminent monks who really turned to Buddhism were integrated, the number of people was counted, a few temples were left behind, and redundant temples were sealed up. All fines were confiscated, and the fertile land was measured and sold again.Officials in all localities must enforce the law impartially, to be fair, just and open, not to fill their own pockets, and not to deceive others.

Because of the labeled guidance, after the decree is communicated to various places, it is not difficult for officials to check it out. They are not afraid of someone falsifying, or being bitten to death.Even if some people just don’t admit that they have committed evil desires, they can just drive them out of the temple, without the protection of the mountain of Buddhism, and with the label that will disappear when they don’t know when, unless they hide in the deep mountains and old forests, Otherwise, it will be difficult to make a new life in the world.

This kind of investigation can take as little as one or two years, and as many as two or three years. A beautiful memorial, as well as the confiscated gold and silver fields and account details.

It's all on the table, even if the forces behind it have to cut their tails to survive, reluctantly part with one another, and give up this important source of income.

Daqi's big move within the whole country is to eliminate evil people, purify evil desires, and benefit the common people. Naturally, the common people applaud and bluntly say that it is the work of God's warning and the emperor's wise move.

After this big cleansing, nine out of ten of the Buddhist sects were or were about to be cleared, leaving only one out of ten people, and the entire Daqi temples and nunneries were also seized, and there was nothing left.Because these vacant monasteries occupy a large area, they can be used as shelters for the poor and disaster victims, or they can be sold and rebuilt for other uses.

The biggest beneficiary is of course the emperor. With the completion of the first wave of investigations and the silver taels obtained from the sale of the fields, the treasury has collected nearly 500 million silver in vain.Afterwards, with the completion of various local inspections, there will be a steady stream of silver delivered to the treasury, and the people will have to pay taxes every year after buying the land. These conservative estimates can also increase the treasury income by one-third, and the people have land to plant , having food to eat can be described as a great good deed that benefits the country and the people.

For Jiang Yingrong who offered this plan and assisted throughout the whole process, the emperor was naturally very grateful, and even regarded him as a guest of honour.With a wave of his hand, Jiang Yingrong was given a spacious and magnificent mansion near the root of the imperial palace with a beautiful view to repair it, and ordered the craftsmen to rush to repair it day and night. On the day of completion, he personally bestowed the five characters "Taiqing Supreme Palace" .Conferring Jiang Yingrong as "Taizhen Yuanjun Wuliang Supreme Real Man", if Jiang Yingrong didn't stop her life and death, she would have made her a national teacher with great fanfare and announced it to the world.

On the day of moving into the new residence, the emperor came to warm Jiang Yingrong's house in person, from the great prince down to the 22nd prince, and the new prince added by the 22nd emperor was brought here just after the full moon, which shows how much he takes it seriously.It caused others to almost think that Jiang Yingrong was a little demon, who did not know what kind of ecstasy method was given to the emperor, so that the emperor favored her so much.Fortunately, outsiders don't know that the source of the Buddhist affairs is Jiang Yingrong, otherwise the interests of so many people will be hindered, and I'm afraid I would like to drink his blood, eat his flesh, and swallow Jiang Yingrong alive.

Taking advantage of this housewarming, the emperor must see the big bird described by the magistrate of Yangcheng—the airplane, the magical machine that can travel thousands of miles a day.Now that it was taken out, Jiang Yingrong didn't intend to hide it. Fortunately, the backyard of the new house is wide, and Jiang Yingrong directly parked the plane in the open space in the backyard. The shared ride took a small circle around the capital city, and it was only after the addiction of flying at high altitude that I gave up.

The emperor had already received the news that it was difficult to build a second machine for this magical machine, so he didn't mention it again.But the moment he got off the plane, his feet stepped on the solid and heavy ground again, and the emperor let go of his heart. No matter how fast this magic machine is, it is better to come down to earth, and he will never sit on the second time. Calm down as usual, secretly make up your mind.

As for the fiery, scrutinizing, or strange gazes of other princes, and the adoring eager eyes of the grandsons, Jiang Yingrong said that she has become accustomed to it. Since she chose such a path at the beginning, she would have to finish her kneeling, right? look?Small meaning, small meaning... Hehe, no wonder!It's enough to be famous in the capital, so the national teacher doesn't care, she can't bear the fanatical gazes of thousands of people!

The author has something to say: The Spring Festival is to send off a wave of relatives and welcome a new wave of relatives. If you are busy, you can’t be idle for a moment. It’s better to go to work
