Chapter 395 Dare to obstruct the destruction of Buddha? Behead! Landed in a box!
Liu Liangzuo followed the sound and saw that this man was dignified and majestic, and behind him was a dense forest of soldiers.
The firearms held by these soldiers looked obviously better, and they even carried light vehicle-mounted artillery.
Liu Liangzuo immediately knew that it would be impossible for him to kill people like Yan Yingyuan and keep his share of property in Chongyu Temple.
Not only that, Liu Liangzuo also knew that now, he had to think about how to let the man in the python robe before him cover up his actions just now.
Liu Liangzuo had no choice but to get off his horse hastily, and bowed his hands together.
At the same time, Liu Liangzuo put on a smile and asked, "But the cabinet is here?"
Yan Yingyuan also turned around at this time, took a look, breathed a sigh of relief, and followed suit.
At this time, the man in the boa robe walked down the mountain with the help of the guards, and said: "Aside from the Ministry of Buddhism and Taoism that is ordered to inspect the world, who else would appear here? But this Liu Canshuai, you You are so courageous, you dare to slaughter thousands of court officials in a county! Are you going to rebel?"
"The cabinet has mercy!"
Liu Liangzuo hurriedly knelt down, cupped his hands and shouted.
The person Liu Liangzuo called the Ministry of Cabinet was naturally Chen Zizhuang who was ordered to inspect Buddhist temples all over the world.
It’s just that Chen Zizhuang didn’t expect that when he visited Chongyu Temple in Qingping County along the canal along the canal, he encountered a situation where an official of the county government was almost slaughtered by the local army for rectifying the Buddhist temple.
Chen Zizhuang was thankful that he had come in time, but also secretly angry at the audacity of some officers and soldiers in this place.
Therefore, Chen Zizhuang immediately ordered: "Take Liu Liangzuo down!"
"yes!"
According to the order to go south with Chen Zizhuang, Mou Wenshou, the military general who served as the commander-in-chief of the standard battalion, responded with a wave of his hand, and then a group of soldiers rushed down the mountain first.
At this time, Liu Liangzuo's servant still wanted to protect his own master.
Seeing this, Chen Zizhuang asked coldly: "Why, do you want to rebel with your generals?!"
The servants did not dare to take this risk, so they all froze in place, and then watched helplessly as Liu Liangzuo was taken back by Chen Zizhuang's Central Guards Academy.
When Liu Liangzuo was taken over, he struggled and shouted: "Ministry of the Cabinet! There is something to discuss! The humble position is nothing more than profiting and foolishness, and it is not intended to be against the court! I also ask the Ministry to give the humble position another chance. The humble position is willing to pay a lot of money. Report it!"
Chen Zizhuang snorted coldly, ignored Liu Liangzuo, and only ordered: "Please ask the king to order the flag, and kill this person immediately, and then pass it on to the governors, generals, generals, generals, and patrol officers of all provinces in the world, so that everyone in the world will know the fate of obstructing the imperial court's decree." !"
"yes!"
Liu Liangzuo didn't expect that Chen Zizhuang would kill him first and then play later, and he didn't intend to spare him easily, so he simply changed his attitude and shouted angrily:
"Surnamed Chen! You traitors, I have been controlled by you so that you can't plunder the people, you can't kill the good and take the credit, and now you can only keep slaves in Buddhist temples with the local prominent families for profit, but now why are you still unwilling to let go? Overtake us, we must be killed!"
"Isn't it just raising a few children in the temple, lending some usury, evading some taxes, and hiding some property of unknown origin, why are you chasing after it?"
"You are also powerful people, don't you really want to be the master of the Han people?! Ah!"
Chen Zizhuang glanced at Liu Liangzuo, and said: "The people are precious, and anyone who wants to enslave the Han people should be killed!"
As he spoke, Chen Zizhuang yelled, "Cut it off immediately!"
Shua!
dong dong.
Not long after, after Mou Wenshou personally drew his knife and chopped off Liu Liangzuo's neck, Liu Liangzuo's head rolled down the steps outside the mountain gate on the spot, and was then put into a box by an official school.
"You are Yan Yingyuan?"
Chen Zizhuang asked Yan Yingyuan after killing Liu Liangzuo.
Yan Yingyuan replied: "The next official is right."
Chen Zizhuang nodded, and said: "The national policy is implemented well, and I will mention you to the court. Continue to do things for the court and the people!"
"yes!"
Chen Zizhuang then continued to inspect.
There is no unique and even.
Like Yan Yingyuan, there are still many officials who are dedicated to rectifying Buddhist temples in various places in Daming. At the same time, Chen Zizhuang is also strictly urging when he patrols various places.
So, Buddhist temples and Taoist temples all over the world were rectified for a while.
This naturally caused dissatisfaction among many monks, Taoists and even local forces.
Even officials who have collusion or interests with Buddhist temples and Taoist temples feel dissatisfied.
Therefore, when Chen Zizhuang came to the border of Zaozhuang, he encountered a rebellion launched by tens of thousands of followers of the White Lotus Sect in the name of Buddhism.
However, the White Lotus Sect rebellion had no mass foundation, and was soon suppressed by the Mou Wenshou tribe who followed Chen Zizhuang, without causing too much civil uprising.
These members of the White Lotus Sect are originally folk forces that Ming Dynasty has always guarded against.
Now on the surface, the forces of the White Lotus Sect no longer dare to confront the government openly, and most of them hide in ancient temples deep in the mountains, and will only wait for class conflicts to intensify before they will take the opportunity to agitate the people.
It’s just that the Ming court wants to rectify Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, so it’s forced these White Lotus Sect forces who have been hiding in ancient temples deep in the mountains to confront the court.
While Chen Zizhuang suppressed a group of White Lotus Sect forces in Zaozhuang, the capital also encountered a large group of White Lotus Sect forces who appeared in the territory of Shuntian Prefecture because of the rectification of Buddhist temples, and clashed with the soldiers of Shuntian Prefecture.
These White Lotus Sect forces are dissatisfied with the government for depriving them of the opportunity to enslave the Han people in the name of accepting disciples, and have seduced some foolish people who also have the same thoughts, and want to fight against the government.
Shuntian Governor Min Mengde was also very aware of this, and specially pretended to retreat after the appearance of these White Lotus Sect forces, and sprinkled a lot of gold and silver on the ground.
These monks and soldiers under the command of the White Lotus Sect are mostly disguised as green-skinned hooligans. Naturally, they are open to money, and when they see a lot of property on the ground, they immediately rob it, and they don't care about chasing the officers and soldiers.
Min Mengde directly ordered the army to kill them back, and directly killed these White Lotus Sect followers, blood flowed like a river, and they were defeated on the spot. Even the leader of the White Lotus Sect was captured alive.
Zhang Gui learned in the capital city that the rectification of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in the local area was very smooth. Chen Zizhuang even cut off the head of the general Liu Liangzuo and passed it on to the provinces. very satisfied.
Just because of the rectification of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, it also involves the interests of many powerful bureaucrats. After all, many Buddhist temples are the family temples of these powerful bureaucrats, and they are the real masters behind many Buddhist temples.
So, when the policy of rectifying Buddhist temples and Taoist temples was in full swing, a group of relatives of the emperor, ministers and ministers all came to Xiyuan to clamor to see the emperor.
But these powerful bureaucrats were all stopped by Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian directly said: "Your Majesty is retreating to study the new skills of strengthening the country and benefiting the people. I don't see any foreign ministers! Please come back."
And these powerful bureaucrats are naturally unwilling. After all, they have suffered heavy losses due to being defrauded before. Now if even the Buddhist temple under their name is also rectified, the loss will undoubtedly be even heavier.
Therefore, when Cheng Anbo Guo Zuoyong saw that Wei Zhongxian refused to let them see Emperor Tianqi, he was angry first: "Nine thousand years old! You are also a person who respects Buddha, don't you understand that destroying Buddha in this way will offend Bodhisattva? ! "
"That is, Your Majesty allows some treacherous officials in the court to offend the Bodhisattva, isn't he afraid of angering the Buddha?!"
Wu Qinghou Li Chengming also followed suit.
And Wei Zhongxian replied in a deep voice: "Buddhas and Bodhisattvas definitely don't want their disciples to treat ordinary people as straw dogs! You'd better leave immediately, otherwise you will be trespassing, and you will be killed!"
