The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1116 Let Him Build Tall Buildings

"No, no, no." Yuan Tiangang shook his head, and said with a smile: "This time I'm waiting for Lord Hou on the road, and the poor are here to thank Lord Hou."

"Thank you?" Xuan Shijing frowned, and then remembered the matter of Fahua Temple: "There is no need to thank them, and it is also their bad luck. After this incident, it has bought a lot of time for Taoism. Daoist Yuan can take care of himself, let's go. "

After finishing speaking, Xuan Shijing lowered the curtains, and the carriage was driven slowly towards Dongshan County by the coachman, leaving Yuan Tiangang standing alone.

Xuan Shijing was unwilling to deal with Yuan Tiangang, but this person was too thick-skinned and always posted it himself.

Watching Xuan Shijing's carriage leave, Yuan Tiangang still had a smile on his face.

It’s fine if others are ignorant. Yuan Tiangang is meticulous. Now Fahua Temple has been confiscated, and His Majesty ordered the Shenhou Mansion to confiscate it. This shows that the imperial court has already set its sights on Buddhism. Hua Temple has been found out so many things, can other Buddhist temples in Chang'an City escape?

After this turmoil, the surrounding area of ​​Chang'an, or the reputation of the entire Buddhist sect in the Tang Dynasty will plummet. At this time, it is the time for the rise of Taoism.

Yuan Tiangang found that it was really worthwhile to ask Xuan Shijing to invite Sun Simiao. In this gap, his uncle, Daoist Sun Simiao, himself and Li Chunfeng, in Chang'an City, there is great hope for the rise of the Taoist sect. ah.

If you want him to say, those bald donkeys in the Buddhist sect have no foresight. They just fool people into believing in past lives, present lives, past lives, and afterlife, but they can't see that Dongshan Hou is unusual, and they are rushing to offend people. Well, it's retribution.

"I'm still thinking about the festival between Master Hou and Daoist Yuan." Qin Bingyue asked in the carriage.

"Of course, if you spread those rumors well, who will be happy if you put them on?" Xuan Shijing said, "This kind of thing is only once, and it can be regarded as a face for Daoist Yuan Shoucheng. Yuan Tiangang is not a good person, so it is okay to stay away from him." The downside, what do you think he wants to do when he meets me outside the city today?"

"Master Hou knows what he wants to do?"

"It's nothing more than wanting to throw stones at the Buddhist sect." Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "Now he probably has already guessed that the imperial court intends to start an investigation of the temple. This is an excellent opportunity for the Taoist sect he belongs to. The follow-up matters have been handed over to the officials of the three provinces, together with the Ministry of War, to conduct an inventory of the temples in Chang'an City, which has nothing to do with the Shenhou Mansion, so even if he finds me, it is useless, let's go back to Zhuangzi with peace of mind Come on, have a good year."

Regarding these religions in Chang'an City, Xuan Shijing watched him build a tall building, watched him entertain guests, and watched his building collapse.

The result of the raid on Fahua Temple was written by the Chang'an government office and posted in various parts of Chang'an City. As soon as the notice was posted, it was surrounded by the people in Chang'an City.

Xuan Shijing brought people to search Fahua Temple and there was an uproar in Chang'an City, and the common people were eager to know the reason for this. It was not until they saw the official notice that they felt less malicious towards Xuan Shijing.

"It turns out that this temple is so rich."

"Yes, there are tens of thousands of acres of fertile land."

"I heard people say that the imperial court previously stipulated that temples do not have to pay taxes. How much tax will be saved by this?"

"Before I went to Fahua Temple, I donated a lot of money, saying that I wanted to build a golden body for the Buddha statue. Fahua Temple is so rich, and I haven't seen any serious Buddha body for the Buddha statue."

"Liar, liar."

In Fahua Temple, some people who were tricked into donating sesame oil money felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts. They felt that they were devoted to the Buddha, but they were cheated by a group of monks. How could they feel better?

"I think the Marquis of Dongshan was afraid that the people in his village would be deceived by those monks, so he drove them away."

"It makes sense. Alas, I was really sorry that I arranged Dongshan Hou when I didn't know the truth before."

The ups and downs in Chang'an City have nothing to do with Xuan Shijing, Xuan Shijing is on Zhuangzi, waiting to see the school on Zhuangzi being built day by day, waiting for the New Year, waiting for the next spring to marry a wife again.

On the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, Yuan Shoucheng arrived in Chang'an and stayed in Sun Simiao's medical center. During the day, the two sat in the Qianjin Medical Center to consult the common people. In the evening, they ate and chatted together when they had free time, discussing medical skills, and lived a happy life. It is also pleasant.

Yuan Shoucheng intends to hold a Taoist event in Chang'an City on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. He will invite Sun Simiao and Yuan Shoucheng to go there. Taoism became popular among the common people.

The farm households on Zhuangzi in Dongshan County don’t have to go all the way to Chang’an City to buy. After all, there is a market in Zhuangzi, and the side of Dongshan Lake is where the merchants unload their goods. It's cheaper in the store.

Just like later generations do not go to the supermarket to buy seafood, but go directly to the wharf. There is a centralized warehouse built by Dongshan Lake. Many merchants unload the goods from the ship and send them directly to the warehouse. Most of those buyers have their own stores in Chang'an City, which cost an extra sum, and the people in Zhuangzi in Dongshan County buy directly from the merchants, which saves this part of the money.

It is even easier for the people in the Hou Mansion to buy things for the Hou Mansion, just take the people in the mansion, take a taxi and walk to the lake, pay the money, and take the things directly back to the mansion.

Not only the people of Dongshan County, but also people from all over Dongshan County gathered towards Zhuangzi. A few years ago, the market on Zhuangzi became popular again.

In the mansion of the Hou Mansion, Xuan Shijing was in the yard where the kitchen was, with his sleeves rolled up, rounding his arms and swinging a wooden hammer to beat rice cakes, while Jin Yang was opposite Xuan Shijing, adding ingredients to the stone mortar from time to time.

In the Hou Mansion, it is not uncommon for Xuan Shijing to cook something by himself. If it happens once or twice, the cooks in the mansion are still panicked. Now, they are used to their Hou Ye not taking the gentleman away from the kitchen seriously. .

The couple chatted while making rice cakes, Qin Bingyue was helping in the kitchen, and Wang was in the yard, picking out the things to use for the New Year's Eve vigil, most of which were food, and the people in the house gathered together to vigil, It has become a habit, and for the people in the house, New Year's Eve is also a look forward to.

There is food that you can't eat on weekdays, it is profitable, and it is lively until dawn, and you can sleep late in the morning, get up and pack your things, and then you can go out and walk around.
