Chapter 550: Reverse practice of magical skills
Wen Yanbo was supported by Wen Yiqing when he arrived at Funing Hall.

His brows furrowed.

Because the person coming towards him is the person he hates the most right now.

Prince Shaobao and Zhang Fangping, the military governor of Zhangde Army!

However, Wen Yanbo soon started laughing.

Because Wen Yanbo knew that Feng Jing would soon be ordered to return to the court.

The decree has been issued.

The envoy of Baoning Army, the envoy of Zhongtai Palace, and Feng Jing of Henan Prefecture returned to the court to report on their duties.

This is caused by the struggle of many forces.

Among them, the one who contributed the most was of course the Grand Master Wen Yanbo.

"This is a grand ceremony for the officials to present gifts to the two palaces! It is also a cultural and educational event for the country and the dynasty!"

Today’s little official!

Wen Yanbo smiled and said goodbye.

Although, the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty were not shy about talking about profit.

"To be honest, Grand Master, I have been ordered to present the third volume of "Yuanyou Dictionary"..." Zhang Fangping replied without mercy.

He is very angry now!

"Is Zhang Jiedu entering the palace today?" Wen Yanbo asked with squinted eyes.

After Wen Yanbo entered the closed door of Funing Hall, he had completely forgotten Zhang Fangping.

Wen Yanbo was obviously stunned.

He stood there all the time, watching Wen Yanbo's back disappear into the palace.

……

"Don't dare!" Zhang Fangping lowered his head, his old eyes seemed to want to eat people.

"Grand Master!" Zhang Fangping also saw Wen Yanbo, and immediately stepped aside, bowing slightly to salute, but his gesture was very perfunctory, and he just cupped his hands.

He actually let that old man steal the status that should have belonged to Mr. Han and Mr. Fu.

From a distance, he saw the figure of a small official sitting in the bead curtain at the end of the curtain.

"If Han Wei Gong and Fu Zheng Gong are here, who will get this old man to show off his power and rely on his old age?"

Wen Yanbo was very cooperative: "Your Majesty adheres to the teachings of saints, extends his grace to the world, and benefits all people. I would like to congratulate the world on this."

"Grandmaster's advice, I will bear it in mind!" Zhang Fangping said almost through gritted teeth.

A defeated general is nothing to mention!
With Wen Yiqing's support, Wen Yanbo slowly walked into the curtain of Funing Hall.

"What do you think, Grand Master?"

Unfortunately, the reality is that Han Wei Gong has already passed away, and Fu Zheng Gong has also passed away.

But for the emperor to hint directly and nakedly to a senator, it was somewhat exaggerated!
That's right, this little official has already proven that his words and deeds are not willful, but carefully considered.

"That's good!" Wen Yanbo nodded as if it were a matter of course, and said in the tone of a superior instructing his subordinates: "I will go to the "Yuanyou Dictionary" bookstore in a few days to pay my respects to Jiedu..."

"The third volume has been compiled so quickly?" Wen Yanbo smiled: "Jiedu should be more careful and have better control."

……

"Of the four stations in the southeast, northwest and northwest, which one does the Grand Master prefer?" Zhao Xu asked with a smile, then he picked up the perilla drink cooked by Wen Xunniang and drank it slowly.

"I am in the bookstore, waiting for the grand master to come!"

Wen Yanbo laughed in his heart.

Just thinking about it made Zhang Fangping feel sick.

Once Feng Jing returns to the court, the golden-haired rat will definitely try to compete with him for the right to compile the "Yuanyou Dictionary".

You really figured out his weakness!

The time is just before the Holy Day of the Queen Mother.

Zhao Xu sat on the mattress and told Wen Yanbo what he had said to Cao Yan two days ago.

"That's what happened..."

Then he spat viciously: "Old man!"

Zhang Fangping said goodbye with a fake smile.

Because Feng Jing’s golden-haired rat is about to return to court.

What's more, now?

Next to Xiao Guanjia, there was a delicate figure that he was very familiar with.

The fragrance of perilla fills the mouth, the sweetness of honey is not greasy but not heavy, and the refreshing smoothie dilutes the sultry heat of this summer.

Back then, when he was in court, Zhang Fangping was no match for him.

At the same time, he can also be responsible for the words he says and the decisions he makes.

Wen Yanbo might think he was joking with him, or even playing tricks on him.

However, Wen Yanbo's expression still became serious.

Wen Yanbo stood up, bent down slightly, and then asked angrily: "I am stupid, I don't know what your Majesty is talking about?"

"I hope your Majesty will make it clear!"

Zhao Xu looked at Wen Yanbo's serious expression and calmly put down the perilla drink in his hand.

At this moment he even wanted to laugh.

Because Wen Yanbo’s words can be translated as: “You might as well speak more clearly!”

This reminded Zhao Xu of a micro-manipulation master he had seen on modern TV.

Therefore, he is not angry either. He even chuckled, he knew these civil servants of the Song Dynasty.

Everyone wants to be a bitch and also wants to build a memorial arch.

Including Zhang Dun!

During the Shaosheng era, Zhang Dun would find an excuse every now and then to instigate others to write a letter to impeach him.

Every time, Zhao Xu had to go to retain and comfort him.

Once, Zhao Xu deliberately made a joke with Zhang Dun and left out someone's impeachment memorial.

The next day, Lao Zhang hurriedly submitted a message to beg for an audience. When he arrived in front of the emperor, he looked like an ant on a hot pot. At that time, Zhao Xu laughed and leaned back.

Therefore, Zhao Xu stopped teasing Wen Yanbo, lest Lao Deng would be angry.

He said to Wen Xunniang beside him: "Mr. Ganquan County, go and fetch for me the few volumes of manuscripts that I have placed on the desk in my bed."

Wen Xunniang was obviously stunned.

Obviously, she hasn't gotten used to the social style of 'calling one's job at work'.

After a while, she came to her senses and bowed Yingying: "No!"

Wen Yanbo looked at Wen Xunniang and could freely enter and leave Zhao Xu's bed, without Zhao Xu even needing to tell him where to go to pick up the manuscript.

My heart suddenly shivered and I quickly lowered my head.

Scholar-officials and relatives are two different creatures in the royal court.

The scholar-bureaucrats could confront the emperor.

This is a duty and a requirement, and it is also the 'ancestral method' that has been formed since Renmiao.

But relatives... must recognize their status clearly at all times.

Don't call him a hard-core emperor.

Even when you speak, you should choose your words carefully, otherwise you will be labeled as "arrogant because of favor".

If you are not careful, you will be labeled as 'domineering', and then you will be attacked by the government and the public.

I remember back then, Empress Wen Cheng and Zhang were so favored.

But his father and brother were still cautious and cautious like domestic servants in front of the emperor.

Now, since the Wen family wants to transform into relatives.

I can no longer cling to the bad temper of scholar-bureaucrats.

Not long after, Wen Xunniang came to Zhao Xu with several stacks of documents and presented them.

Zhao Xu took these documents, picked up one at random, and handed it to Wen Yanbo: "Grand Master, please read..."

"This is the text that I copied from the Sermons of the Three Dynasties that you gentlemen revised for me today. I copied them from the Sermons and Sacred Scriptures such as "Chong Mu Zai" and "Minister of Body"..."

"Our ancestors passed down their virtues from generation to generation, and their virtues were passed down from generation to generation. As a child, I dare not forget them for even a day, so I study diligently day and night, and never slack off."

Wen Yanbo quickly stood up and paid his respects: "Your Majesty is benevolent and filial, I would like to congratulate the world."

Then he took the stack of Yuan calligraphy papers sent by Wen Xunniang.

Every word on the paper is correct and correct. It is indeed the original handwriting of today's official family.

Looking at the content, we can see that Renmiao, Yingmiao and the late emperor expressed their love, importance, trust and forgiveness to their ministers.

However, very few words are used for each thing.

It can be as short as two or three crosses, or as long as one hundred crosses.

It simply records the conversation between a certain late emperor and a certain minister in a certain month of a certain year.

However, Wen Yanbo looked at it and narrowed his eyes.

Because if you look at these words and stories separately, they might not seem like much.

They only teach the emperor that ministers should be reused, officials should be selected with morality, ministers should be treated with kindness, ministers should be respected, scholar-bureaucrats should be treated favorably, etc.

But when these things are put together, something doesn’t taste right.

Just listen to the little official sitting on the throne say: "The teachings of the three dynasties are the two prime ministers and gentlemen, working day and night, working tirelessly to pick up the holy teachings, words and deeds of our ancestors, to teach me how to listen to politics, inquire about politics, and The study of governance.”

"The Prime Minister of the Left, Kang Guogong, told me when he gave me the Precious Instructions: The master should be a scholar, observe the intentions of the ancient saints, analyze the rise and fall of the emperors in the past, and seek the key to establishing government and affairs. If you talk about the art of caring for the people and benefiting things, your virtue will naturally improve with each passing day, and your virtue will spread throughout the world!”

"I am studying it diligently so that I can improve with each passing day!"

Wen Yanbo listened, stunned and said reflexively: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Zhao Xu looked at it, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Just like the scriptures of Confucius and Mencius, it is also impossible for the deceased emperor to get up from the coffin and explain his words and deeds back then.

The scholar-bureaucrats of the Great Song Dynasty, even the two saints Confucius and Mencius, could directly communicate with each other, and then announced that they had known the "true meaning" of the saints and understood the intentions of the "sages" back then.

Naturally, it is impossible to let go of the 'former emperors'.

Therefore, the so-called "Sacred Instructions of the Three Dynasties" is actually a so-called "Sacred Instructions of the Ancestors" compiled and excerpted by scholar-officials out of their own interests.

Its authenticity is not without it.

But it is generally similar to the modern "Reader" and "Zhiyin".

The deeds and conversations excerpted and intercepted above have all been beautified and whitewashed. Did some of the things even happen? I still have to put a question mark!
why?
Because when Jing Yanguan was ordered to compile the "Three Dynasties Precepts", he followed the story of the Renmiao Dynasty.

In the "Bao Xun" written in the Renmiao era, a large number of folk stories were used.

It even directly refers to the "Sacred Instructions of the Three Dynasties" written by Shi Jie privately.

With this precedent, whether it was written by Han Jiang or Lu Gong, whether it was Fan Chunren or Lu Dafang, in the compilation process of the "Three Dynasties Precepts", a large number of folk tales that conformed to their ideologies and positions were used.

Many things were even copied directly from Sima Guang's "Records of Sushui" and the private notes of other old party literati and ministers.

Therefore, when Li Tao later wrote "The Long Continuation of Zizhi Tongjian", he saw that the various "Treasure Instructions" and "Hadith" materials that had been left behind were as big as the first and the second.

Because he discovered that many things in these "Sermons" and "Hadith" cannot be found in actual records, and there are no records in the history of the country.

Even the years, months and days are blurred, and I can only estimate the approximate years by relying on the monarchs and ministers they talked about.

Of course, Zhao Xu would not be used to these scholar-bureaucrats.

Journalism.

Make it as if he can't.

A monk can touch it, and a poor Taoist can touch it too!
"So, Taishi, I am following the methods of our ancestors, using our ancestors' concepts of loving the people as our foundation, putting the world first, and focusing on the country, to implement our ancestors' stories of 'emphasis on shepherding and slaughtering' and 'body ministers'."

As he spoke, he began to memorize the excerpts he had excerpted.

Generally speaking, it's all about Injo, Yeongjo, and Hwangkao.

Their deeds are all that the three late emperors reused, got close to, and trusted ministers, and acted freely. Finally, with the assistance of this wise minister and capable official, they finally suppressed the rebellion or stabilized the famine in a certain area.

Among them, there is even Wen Yanbo’s own story.

"During the Qing Dynasty of Injo's reign, Beizhou rebelled and the world was shaken. Injo sighed and said: None of the ministers are doing anything for the country, so what's the use of going to the palace every day?"

"At that time, Wen Yanbo, the Grand Master and Pingzhang who was in charge of the military and state affairs, was the deputy envoy to the Privy Council. He was so impressed by this that he begged to see Renzu and reported the incident in Beizhou, the strategy of calming the people and quelling the chaos, and the words of pacifying and rewarding the army. Renzu Ancestor Nai was delighted and said: I have entrusted you with military power and entrusted me with your love! I am here to pay my respects to the Xuanfu envoy to quell the rebellion..."

When Wen Yanbo heard this, he finally knew something was wrong.

Because this official is practicing the "Three Dynasties Treasure Training" in reverse.

He directly processed the carefully selected sermons, hadiths, and deeds of the 'Three Saints' from the Sermons of the Three Dynasties, and then spliced ​​these things together to form his own set of logic.

However, this logic is quite smooth!

Even, it has occupied the moral high ground.

really!

After the official finished memorizing the stories and deeds he had excerpted, he said affectionately: "The Three Saints govern government with benevolence first, love for the people as the foundation, and benefiting the world."

"Although I am young, I am still willing to serve you!"

"So, I only wanted to buy the embankment company last year, and now I have to start buying the pawn shop."

"but……"

"After all, the counterfeit office is no better than the embankment department...it involves millions of families..."

"If a merchant buys it without being benevolent and righteous, but instead strips it, carves it, and abuses the people, how can I bear it?"

"The grand master, the elder of the four dynasties, my guardian, comes out in my generation to lead the people to a new beginning!"

As he spoke, the young official who was sitting on the cushion stood up and bowed to Wen Yanbo.

Wen Yanbo's eyelids twitched.

This taste...

Wen Yanbo is very familiar!
Because there is a record in historical records - after Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty came to the throne, he deeply felt that the merits of the veteran army were valuable in Beijing, and he was afraid of being in danger, so he issued an edict to the two prime ministers Chen Ping and Zhou Bo: "If you send the princes to the country, or you have not yet said your words, The most important thing to me, Prime Minister, is the country where I lead the princes!

As a result, the two great ancestors and elders who had killed Zhu Lu and established Emperor Wen were relieved of their power and sent back to their feudal kingdoms with a flimsy edict.

Emperor Wen was able to take power.

Today, the tone, wording, and attitude of the petty officials are almost the same as the tone, wording, and attitude of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty in historical records.

Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty wanted to take power.

So what is the purpose of Xiaoguanjia?
Wen Yanbo was excited and immediately realized - this was to ask the Wen family to submit their name certificate!
They are also forcing him, a veteran, to express his stance!
He was even testing the Wen family to see if they had the consciousness to help the emperor do bad and dirty things - yes, nine out of ten of the bad things done by the relatives of the Song Dynasty were actually done for the emperor.

Of course Wen Yanbo knew this very well, because he was very close to Queen Wen Chengzhang's family back then.

He knows the things about the Zhang family very well.

In those years, the relatives of the Zhang family were greedy for money, seized power, and interfered in local money-making businesses everywhere, which caused a lot of criticism in the world.

Do you really think the Zhang family is willing?
The Zhang family doesn’t want to imitate the Cao family and live an innocent life?
Have no idea!

They were all forced.

When Wen Yanbo thought of this, he lost all temper.

He once again became the Wen Yanbo who licked his face and became brother-in-law with Zhang Yaozuo during the Qingli and Huangyou years in order to worship the prime minister.

"Your Majesty is a saint, inherited from his ancestors, and adheres to the teachings of his ancestors. He will surely become the wise master of the world!" Wen Yanbo immediately expressed his attitude.

Then, he sighed: "However, the old minister is old and it may be difficult to act."

It's not that he wants to shirk it.

It's true that he is really not suitable to do this. "If Your Majesty will not give up, I will beg my dog ​​and my husband to serve Your Majesty!"

This is reverse testing.

Wen Yanbo didn't want the Wen family to end up like the Zhang family - Zhang Yaozuo worked as a dog for Renmiao, did so many things, and was besieged by the world.

Finally?

The Zhang family doesn't even have a mansion in the capital, so they can only rent other people's houses to live in!

After the death of Empress Wencheng and Zhang, the Zhang family could not even pay the rent, so they could only write a letter begging the court for favor.

Only then did Renmiao issue an edict, asking Yousi to pay a monthly rent of ninety thousand.

After conversion, it is only one hundred and twenty guans per month.

During the Jiayou period, the money might have been enough for the Zhang family to rent a relatively decent house in Bianjing City.

But now...

I'm afraid I can only go to the edge of the new city to rent a house big enough for dozens of Zhang family members.

The most chilling thing is Zhang Yaozuo's legitimate son Zhang Shanfu, who was also a veteran of the four dynasties.

All my life I have been following the rules and doing things respectfully.

In the end, the Privy Council accepted the decree.

However, when Zhang Shanfu became an official, the imperial court did not favor his descendants. Without Zhang Shanfu's salary, the Zhang family's life in Bianjing became increasingly difficult.

Later, Wen Yanbo still couldn't stand it anymore. Last year, he talked about this matter with An Tao, the Privy Councilor of Tongzhi at the time. An Tao took advantage of the new emperor's accession to the throne to write a letter and won a few places for Zhang Shanfu's descendants.

Is Wen Yanbo afraid that the Wen family will also be abandoned and abandoned?
Of course I'm afraid!
Therefore, he needs some attitudinal protection.

Wen Yanbo, who was worried, saw Xiao Guanjia stand up and said with joy on his face: "It would be best if the Grand Master can get Wen Aiqing to come forward!"

"I have long heard that among the Grand Master's disciples, Shi Wen Yiqing, who is the general secretary of the Grand Master, is considered to be the most virtuous, and I have long wanted to reuse him!"

"However, the Grand Master has a high moral character and has repeatedly declined my appointment."

"Now that the Grand Master has agreed to send Wenjun out of the mountain, I am really happy!"

"With Jun Wen's help, great things can be accomplished!"

Wen Yanbo listened to Zhao Xu and spoke out the names and positions of his two favorite sons fluently.

My heart suddenly became happy.

Regardless of what the future holds, the current attitude is already worth the fate of the Wen family.

So he bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty loves the dog so much that I am very grateful. I will teach the dog to be attentive to the king's affairs and to work for your majesty."

Zhao Xu smiled, looked at Wen Yanbo, and asked, "Master, can you answer me now?"

"There are four defense stations in the southeast, northwest and northwest. Which one does the Grand Master like?"

Wen Yanbo did not hesitate and bowed directly: "Old minister, I only obey His Majesty's orders!"

"Good!" Zhao Xu nodded and said, "I am going to Kaifeng Mansion tomorrow, so Wenjun can go with me."

"I will obey your will."

……

After sending Wen Yanbo away, Zhao Xu rubbed his hands and took the Yuan Shu paper that copied the text of the three dynasties' teachings in his hands.

"Xunniang." Zhao Xu looked at Wen Xunniang who had been standing by and ordered: "Come with me to Kaifeng Mansion tomorrow."

Wen Xunniang immediately said, "No!"

"Prepare the things you are going to bring and pack them up. Just give them to Wen Jifu tomorrow and let him hand them over."

Wen Xunniang raised her head, her face flushed, her nose twitching: "Does the official know?"

Zhao Xu laughed: "If I can't even notice what the people around me are doing, how can I govern the world?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Wen Xunniang's clothes.

She wears a plain and simple gown, uses only ordinary silk cloth for her bra, and has no makeup on her small face.

He leaned forward and sniffed.

This time the Liao envoy came to the DPRK, and among the national gifts he brought with him were thirty bottles of rose sesame oil, a specialty of the Liao country, and Zhao Xu gave Wen Xunniang one bottle.

However, Wen Xunniang did not smell the fragrance of rose sesame oil.

and so……

The truth was out—she had sold.

As for who to sell to?
Do you even need to ask? It must be those people outside the palace.

The Song Dynasty was a feudal dynasty with a developed commodity economy.

This is not only reflected in the people, but also in the officialdom, and also in the palace.

As early as the founding of the Song Dynasty, a small market had been formed outside Donghua Gate for concubines, ministers, and female officials to sell and purchase goods.

You can buy anything in that small market as long as you have money.

Over time, this small market actually developed into a trading place like the Wanxing Trading Conference at Daxiangguo Temple in Bianjing City and super large markets such as Tushizi, Maxing Street, and Panlou Street.

Even during the Yuanfeng era, a stacking yard appeared directly here to serve as a commodity warehouse. Moreover, Zhao Xu's father personally ordered the opening of this stacking yard.

no way!
This stacking yard outside Donghuamen is really profitable.

However, Wen Xunniang was startled by Zhao Xu's sudden approach. She was like a thief caught in the act, and her face turned pale.

"Official...official..."

"I am guilty."

Zhao Xu laughed loudly and said: "Xun Niang missed her mother, what crime did she commit?"

After taking Wen Xunniang back to Wen Mansion last time, Zhao Xu discovered that this little girl began to save money secretly.

Her salary and rewards were all saved by her.

Even the silks and silks given to her by the two palaces for making clothes were secretly hidden by her.

Obviously, she wanted to have the opportunity to take it back to her mother.

Zhao Xu met Wen Xunniang's biological mother last time.

Although the dress is not bad.

But the skin on her face and the exposed calluses on her hands showed that she was not doing well in the Wen family.

It can even be said to be bad!

Shi Deyi's detective department also reported the living conditions of Wen Xunniang's mother and son before she entered the palace, which people in the Wen family talked about.

Except for having a wing to live in, everything else is the same as a servant.

Mother and daughter depend on each other and are said to have a very good relationship.

After some investigation, Zhao Xu found out why his mother and daughter were living in such a bad life.

Wen Zongdao's first wife was jealous.

Wen Zongdao himself was famous for being henpecked.

Originally, this was nothing. As long as Wen Zongdao abided by the rules and followed Shen Kuo's good example, maybe their married life would be very happy.

However, in addition to being henpecked, Wen Zongdao also liked to flirt with women.

This is the problem of Wen Zongdao.

You cannot be henpecked and romantic at the same time.

A good pure love drama turned into a harem drama.

But the heroine is still a woman who has the same strong possessiveness as in the world of Saionji.

Honestly speaking, the reason why Wen Zongdao didn’t become Cheng Ge is that he really has to thank the fact that he was born in the Song Dynasty and had a good father.

Naturally, the powerful wife would try her best to treat and abuse the vixens and bastards brought back by Wen Zongdao.

That is to say, the feudal etiquette governs it, and she dare not go too far.

Otherwise, Wen Xunniang and her son would not survive at all!
Listening to Zhao Xu's gentle comfort, Wen Xunniang burst into tears, and the grievances and uneasiness in her heart surged out like a flood.

"Woooooooo..."

The little girl sobbed.

"Don't cry!" Zhao Xu reached out, brushed away Wen Xunniang's hair, looked at her red eyes, touched her forehead, and then whispered: "I will protect Xunniang from now on!"

Listening to this, Wen Xunniang sobbed even harder.

Seeing this, Zhao Xu had no other solution, so he could only sigh.

Little did he know that his move would fall in the eyes of the ministers and female officials inside and outside the palace, and these people would be moved.

no way!
It is basically impossible for the emperor, who is so high above, to empathize with the people below.

But now Zhao Xu has shown that he can empathize with others, can even endure talking about grievances and crying in front of him, and can also comfort others.

what is this?
This is Ren!

At least that's how it is in the eyes of the inferiors.

……

Wen Yanbo was carried back home by Wen Yiqing on a shoulder cart.

After entering the door, he was about to call Wen Jifu over and tell him something.

But he suddenly remembered something.

"Why did the officials also copy down the events in Beizhou?"

"And you only copied my deeds in Beizhou back then?"

His intuition told him that this was not simple.

There must be a meaning or hint in it - Xiao Guanjia has proven that he will not make mistakes without aim.

So, what is the connection between the Beizhou Wangze Rebellion and the current events?
Wen Yanbo suddenly had an enlightenment.

"Maitreya Cult!"

Wang Ze's Rebellion was launched in the name of Maitreya's coming to the world.

Over the years, the Song Dynasty was actually plagued by folk obscenities and religious activities.

However, in the prefectures and counties of the Song Dynasty, wherever commerce flourished, there must be a big temple, and the big temple must have a warehouse.

The great monks use one hand to treasury and the other hand to annex.

Have officials in the past dynasties been afraid of it?
Of course I'm afraid.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to maintain the farm all the time.

Now the officials want to buy up the pawnshop, and the point pointed by Jianfeng is the pledge storehouse.

Therefore, what the officials want is to let the bankers after the purchase do everything possible to weaken and suppress the stockpile!
Thinking of this, Wen Yanbo felt that everything was explained.

"I see."

"No wonder, no wonder!"

Wen Yanbo thought of the first person the officials were looking for when buying and selling.

Painted by Cao Yi, Xiang Zongliang and Gao Gong.

This is a relative of the emperor and a meritorious official!

Then, I found him, the veteran of the Four Dynasties, the Grand Master, and Pingzhang who was responsible for the military affairs!
This is the scholar-bureaucrat!

Not only that, the emperor also showed him the Three Dynasties Treasure Instructions, which were excerpts from the Hadith and Treasure Instructions.

At that time, he did not react and thought it was pressure or even coercion.

Thinking about it now, Wen Yanbo sighed for the rest of his life.

"Where is this for me to see?"

"It's for everyone in the world to see!"

"This is the Patriarch of the Heaven-respecting Dharma, and he also follows the saints with the saints, and introduces the saints to the saints!"

This is equivalent to handing the scholar-officials a knife and a sharp sword.

The knife that can suppress all the dissatisfaction and opposition of the great monks, and the sharp sword that can make them tremble!
Wen Yanbo is very familiar with this.

Isn't this the method used by scholar-bureaucrats in the past to use the scriptures of saints to intimidate the emperor, relatives, and nobles?
Reversing the teachings of the sages!
"If we include the military ministers..." Wen Yanbo murmured to himself: "The relatives, nobles, scholar-bureaucrats, and military ministers are all in the game!"

"The entire Song Dynasty formed a joint force to encircle and suppress the Qiku!"

"Transfer the benefits of the treasury from the hands of monks to the hands of scholar-bureaucrats, military ministers, and nobles..."

Wen Yanbo felt that he understood.

This is a big game!
I'm afraid, it was already being planned during the late emperor's time.

That is for sure!
Since Taizu, the Zhao Guan family of all dynasties has been envious of the great monks' benefit from the treasury, not just for a day or two.

But I could never find the place or opportunity to speak.

The late emperor would naturally not be an exception.

Therefore, Wen Yanbo guessed that the late emperor must have been planning today's big game, and it had even taken shape.

Unfortunately, due to various reasons, it was not implemented in time.

So the matter fell on the young master who inherited the late emperor's legacy and was also young and smart.

After observing keenly for more than a year, the young master finally decided to implement the late emperor's plan.

I just don’t know how much of these arrangements were the late emperor’s intentions, and how much were perfected by myself today.

However, Wen Yanbo knew that this matter would definitely happen!

Because once the scholar-bureaucrats, nobles, relatives, and military ministers form a joint force.

The quality bank of the great monks will quickly fall apart.

You may even be crushed before you have time to resist.

As for those officials and nobles who believe in and revere Buddhism, will they help the great monks?
Wen Yanbo himself believed in and respected Buddhism.

So he knew that most people would be like him.

"Monks, you should abide by the precepts of Qingdeng Ancient Buddha!"

"For a monk, all four elements are empty. How can he be contaminated by foreign objects and be polluted by the smell of copper?" Wen Yanbo clasped his hands together and praised: "Amitabha!"

"If Buddha knows this, he will also support me."

"I am cleaning the dust from the mountain gate for the Buddha and restoring peace to all the Buddha's monasteries!"

Yes!

The quality storehouse is full of the smell of copper. The Buddhist practice of the monks in the world is not profound enough, so I am afraid that no one can grasp it.

You still have to let me, a gentleman like this, who is full of sage scriptures and has practiced Zen for decades, come!
Saying this, Wen Yanbo became energetic.

Because he discovered that this matter was indeed what he thought.

Then his reputation and reputation in Shilin will not be damaged, but may even become more glorious.

Because he is doing something good for everyone!
Once the resistance in Bianjing City is completed.

All states and counties will definitely follow suit.

Everyone will participate in the wave of carving up the mass library.

Everyone will be satisfied.

Scholar-officials, nobles, military ministers, and relatives made money.

The Tianjia eliminates the risk of the great monks using the money in the treasury and the power of religion to incite ignorant people to rebel.

What a win!
This is how a world where only the great monks were injured was achieved!
Thinking of this, Wen Yanbo immediately said to Wen Yiqing: "Go and call Wen Jifu quickly."

"I need to warn him carefully."
