please make me king

Chapter 498 Blood Washing Shaolin
It is said that after Zhang Shun led the army to conquer Luoyang, Li Jiyu, who stayed behind, led [-] elite soldiers to garrison Dengfeng County.

Chen Jindou suggested to Li Jiyu: "Whatever you do, you must consider the long-term. You can't wait until the fire is imminent and then rush to get angry. It will be too late to regret it!"

"Although Dengfeng County is good, once the army of officers and soldiers comes to encircle and suppress, there will be no place for the rebels to gain a foothold! The nearby Shaoshi Mountain is dangerous, it is better to find a place to set up camp, at least there is a foundation."

Zhang Shun has become the "King of the Mountain" many times since he joined the army.Li Jiyu had been with Zhang Shun for so long, and he knew the benefits, so he nodded in agreement.

Shaoshi Mountain, also known as "Jishi Mountain", also known as "Nine-top Lotus Mountain" or "Yuzhai Mountain".Because the top of Shaoshi Mountain is as wide and flat as a village, it is divided into upper and lower floors, and there are four heavenly gates.At the end of the Jin Dynasty, Xuanzong once stationed troops on the top of Shaoshi Mountain to resist Yuan soldiers, so it is also called "Yuzhai Mountain".

Therefore, the village Li Jiyu built in Shaoshi Mountain was named "Yuzhai", and some people called it "Yuzhai".

Nashaoshi Mountain is located in the northwest of Dengfeng County, with a total of [-] peaks. The mountain is steep and steep, and there are many strange peaks.

The main peak is called Liantian Peak, also known as Zhaixing Tower, which is the highest peak of Songshan Mountain.The famous Shaolin Temple is located at the foot of Wuru Peak in the north of the mountain, and the "Yuzhai" established by Li Jiyu is to the west of Yuzhai Mountain.

Only because there is a pool here, called "Little Drinking Horse Pool", which is suitable for the rebels to draw water, so the village was established here.

Although this place seems to have nothing to do with Shaolin Temple on the surface, in fact, the two sides soon started to have quarrels.The Shaolin Temple in the late Ming Dynasty not only had seventy-two branch temples, but also had twenty-five halls on Shaoshi Mountain.In addition, there are thousands of fertile fields, and countless monks and tenants.

In addition, the abbots of Shaolin Temple are all ordered by the imperial court, and they are inextricably linked with the Ming court.

During the wars against Japanese pirates along the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty, Shaolin monks were dispatched many times to participate in the war.In addition, Zhou You, the "Sanqi Monk" of Shaolin monks, was awarded the title of "General Soldier of Duti Tuning" because of his many military exploits during the Zhengde period, and won the imperial title of "Adversary in the World, Church Monk".

After Li Jiyu established the imperial stronghold, there were many conflicts between the soldiers under his command and the Shaolin monks.

Li Jiyu was quite worried, so he said to Chen Jindou: "No one but you can know the hatred between me and Shaolin Temple. Originally, I wanted to bear it for the sake of the great cause of King Shun. I didn't expect that now that I have power, Shaolin Temple would dare Humiliate me. At first I listened to your persuasion before I joined King Shun's command, but now I don't know why you taught me?"

It turns out that Li Jiyu not only has new grudges with Shaolin Temple, but also old grudges.Li Jiyu's family was originally at the foot of Songshan Mountain. Although he was famous in the past, he was still a farmer.

The Shaolin Temple already has a large number of people, plus the imperial court as its backer and monks as its thugs, it owns thousands of hectares of fertile land and dominates one side.

Naturally, there are people who don't abide by the rules and precepts to bully the tenants and people at the foot of the mountain.This is the so-called "those with good wives rent good land, those without good wives rent bad land, and those without wives have no land to plant".This directly led to the fact that the sons of farmers at the foot of Songshan Mountain could not marry their daughters-in-law, and their daughters could not get married.

This is also the reason why Li Ji met an ordinary farmer and was able to marry a beautiful wife.

Because his family has several acres of Susukida, he doesn't need to act according to the faces of those Shaolin monks.Li Jiyu's father-in-law was naturally very happy, and hurriedly sent his daughter to Li Jiyu's house to avoid being humiliated by the monk.

Then Li Ji met the toad and ate swan meat, and Dong Yong met the Seven Fairies, how could he not be happy?Within two years his wife became pregnant, and Li Jiyu was even more happy from ear to ear all day long.

But there are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings.One day, when his wife returned to her natal home, the wheat in the yard had not been harvested, so she was asked to leave alone.

As a result, something happened when he left. The monks on the mountain were used to being domineering. When they met a little lady passing by, they planned to kidnap her up the mountain.

Although Li Jiyu arrived in time and rescued his wife, his wife was frightened and had a miscarriage.

Although Li Jiyu had killed the two monks to vent his anger, he still felt resentment and anger in his heart.Now that old accounts and new accounts are added together, he can't help but feel murderous.

That Chen Jindou was originally a black-hearted and ruthless master, when he saw Li Jiyu asking for advice, he came up with an idea: "Although Shaolin Temple is powerful, it is a place to eat fast and chant Buddha!"

Before Chen Jindou finished speaking, Li Jiyu stared at him and scolded: "What about the place where you eat fast and chant Buddha, let's just keep the two lions at the door clean!"

"Okay, okay, it's not clean, it's not clean, after all, it's not a place to fight wars. I forgive him for a while, but he can't guard against it for a lifetime. Since General Li has been patient for so many years, why not bear it for a while longer?"

Li Jiyu couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Well, I'll bear with them for a while, and I'm going to vent my anger eventually!"

Afterwards, Li Jiyu prepared gifts such as gold and silver, found a few cronies who had a quarrel with the monks in the temple, and beat them in public.Then he personally brought gifts, the wounded and more than ten cronies to visit the elder of Shaolin Temple.

After seeing all the monks, he apologized and said: "I, Li Jiyu, is a soldier under King Shun. I have always been benevolent and righteous, and I don't hurt the people. In addition, I am originally from Dengfeng, and I am a fellow in my hometown. How can I harm my family? "

"What's more, I, Li Jiyu, am also a person who respects and worships Buddha. How can I run wild in Buddhism? I mismanaged these arrogant people, and I have already punished them in public. This time I came here, I specially prepared a small gift, which is not a respect. I also ask all the elders to accept it with a smile and express their hearts!"

The monks in the temple saw that there was a war at the foot of the mountain, so they had already prepared weapons for monks and pilgrims, and patrolled day and night to prevent the rebels from invading the temple.

Seeing Li Jiyu humbly and courteously coming to the mountain gate to worship the mountain now, he immediately had a good impression of Li Jiyu.

After having a good time with the guests of honor, Li Jiyu resigned from the monks and returned home.These elders, who were originally eminent monks and great virtues, quickly opened the presents that Li Jiyu gave them.I saw that the small box was full of yellow and bright colors, and it turned out to be gold, silver and jewelry.

All the monks were delighted and said: "It turns out that Li Jiyu, a local bandit, is a good man. Now he will go down to the mountain gate without any worries!"

Only the old monk in charge of the Shaolin Temple said worriedly: "There is no reason to please, there must be a plan. Although this person has no enmity or grudge with my Shaolin Temple, he has to guard against him."

All the monks laughed at him for being paranoid, but it was a matter of his own family and life, so they had to send monks to patrol as much as possible.

It's just that after this and that, those monks who got up early and worked late at night were not happy, and complained a lot.

In addition, Li Jiyu showed his goodwill to the temple many times and punished his subordinates who had conflicted with the monk many times. This reassured the monk, and the monk gradually slacked off.
