In the Heavens

Before Xiaofeng Feng could finish his routine speech, the bottom had already exploded. It is no problem to serve the imperial court, but it is not enough to check the properties of monks and temples.

The Forbidden Army is not a leader who knows nothing, everyone is a master with culture and knowledge. Although he didn't learn very well, at least he knew that those taboos could not be violated.

In the past thousands of years, there have been many people who wanted to check the properties of monks and temples, but in the end they all ended in tragedy.

The core reason that caused all this to happen is clear to everyone, and that is the last thing to mention in the Great Zhou Empire - land annexation.

Cultural people all want to save face, and wealthy families are no exception. Why don't you be hated to death by the villagers for playing land annexation in person?

For the sake of his family's reputation, he has to find a blame man! Except for Tie Hanhan and Outbreak Outdoors, there was no one who personally charged into battle.

Different places have different ways of playing.

Some people use casinos as bait to trap people into bankruptcy.

Some people take advantage of natural and man-made disasters as an opportunity to loot.

Some people play the game of big fish eating small fish, secretly instigating hooligans and hooligans to merge, and then slaughter them when they are fattened up, so as to gain a reputation of eliminating harm for the people.

Some people like to use monk temples as pawns, using religious beliefs to encourage believers to donate and annex land.

...

In short, no matter which method is played, the final result is the same: the Great Zhou Empire successfully completed the land annexation.

Under such a social background, no matter who checks the properties of monks and temples, they are doomed to hit the street.

But from the standpoint of the imperial court, it is impossible not to investigate. Without solving the core problem of land annexation, no matter what kind of reform it is, it will be futile.

Other worlds can still develop industry, commerce, and overseas trade, but the Great Zhou Empire has no hope at all.

Looking around, it's all their own territory. The neighbor is a monster, so you can't go to do business with the monster, right?

Without the development of productivity, the rich and powerful families need someone to plant the land, weave cloth, and work, and there is still a way for the ordinary people to survive; if the productivity is really developed, I am afraid that the last sliver of life will be lost.

Knowing that the Great Zhou Empire is sitting on the Flame Mountain, so many emperors still choose to ignore it. The most critical problem is that they don't know how to move at all.

The same principle also applies to civil and military officials. The rule of the Great Zhou Empire can continue if it does not move, and it will collapse immediately if it does not move.

Regardless of whether other people have a solution, anyway, in Li Mu's view, the best solution, and the only solution, is - overthrow and start over.

A middle-aged man with a big belly walked up to Li Mu and said, "Master Qianhu, Mr. Lieutenant got drunk and went crazy, why don't you try to persuade him?"

Glancing at the middle-aged man, Li Mu said angrily: "Fat Dahai, don't you brat fight here. With just the little ink in your stomach, you still want to trick me, you should die as soon as possible!"

If you get tired of working, you can go up and try to persuade him, and see if the surname Feng will take your head to sacrifice the flag.

Don't be dissatisfied with me, our captain is also involuntary now. If you don't do this, his head will be moved soon.

It's all errands that have been suppressed step by step. If you don't want to die, just give me a little peace of mind and follow the trend.

If anyone wants to stand out and show loyalty to so-and-so, I will not stop you. Anyway, this thousand households will not accompany you in courting death! "

While speaking, Li Mu deliberately glared at everyone. Obviously, these words are not only for them, but also for the forces behind them.

Neutrality is the position of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. As a child of the Marquis Mansion, we must stand firmly on this core political issue.

It is estimated that the monk temples and Taoist temples near the capital have all received the news, and they are trying to deal with it at the moment.

Express your attitude in time and let people pass the news on, just to tell these guys that they are not enemies.

...

Looking at the huge and resplendent Zhichan Temple, Li Mu greeted Feng Xiaowei's family. Just based on the part I saw, it covers an area of ​​no less than a thousand acres, and the entire temple will only be bigger.

Such a huge temple is actually a small temple in the eyes of Feng Xiaowei, and it is also called taking care of himself, but Li Mu really believes it.

In this era of the jungle, wealth and strength are directly proportional. The Zhichan Temple can be built so majestic and magnificent, either because of its own strength or the strength of the backstage.

No matter what the situation is, it will not be a soft persimmon today. This means that the next errand will encounter big trouble.

Rubbing his forehead, Li Mu yelled at the middle-aged man hiding behind: "Fat Dahai, get out of here! Don't you usually boast that you have a wide range of friends? Next, we will watch your performance."

Hearing Li Mu's words, the middle-aged man walked over tremblingly, knelt down immediately, and slapped himself twice: "Master Qianhu, please do me a favor, please forgive me this time!

I'm just a braggart. If I really had this ability, I wouldn't have stayed in the position of a hundred households for so many years! "

Li Mu didn't take this scene seriously at all. Don't look at the fat man crying sadly, as if he really knew he was wrong, but in fact this is a strange thing.

The face and glory that other honorable children valued could not be found here. Apart from his thick skin and first-class flattering skills, Li Mu has not found any other advantages in him for the time being.

When it's good, grab it harder than anyone else; when there's trouble, hide faster than anyone else. It is purely a joke to expect him to do things.

After a pause, Li Mu said angrily, "Since you know, why are you still standing there, why don't you hurry up and call the door?"

Pointing to his nose, Pang Dahai asked in disbelief: "Me!"

Glancing at Pang Dahai, Li Mu pretended to be angry and said, "Nonsense! I'm talking to you, not you, who is it? No matter what method you use, you have to fool the host. I want to talk to him in person."

This kind of thing is most suitable for shameless people. Today I came here to smash the scene. If someone else goes there, they might be beaten out.

Once you make a move, there is no room for maneuver. Whether Li Mu likes it or not, there has to be a fight.

It would be fine if he could win the fight, Li Mu had plenty of ways to deal with the aftermath; what he was most afraid of was losing the fight, which would be a real tragedy.

In fact, for this kind of troublesome matter, it is best to talk directly to the boss of the other party. A big man needs to think about a lot of questions, and has a lot of worries in his heart. Even if the talk breaks down, he won't turn his face directly.

After all, Li Mu now represents the Great Zhou Empire. If something happens, he, Qianhu, will certainly be unlucky, and Zhichan Temple, who is the instigator, will not escape the fate of destruction.

...

After about one stick of incense time, an old monk with white eyebrows in a red robe came out with more than 20 monks, and performed a Buddhist ceremony to Li Mu: "Amitabha! General Li came from a long way. It's really a sin to be lost!"

I have to admit that the emotional intelligence of the old monk with white eyebrows is high enough. A welcoming team of more than twenty people is undoubtedly the most suitable number.

It not only gave enough face, but also had the effect of establishing prestige, without making people feel that it was provocative.

The aura was released, and Li Mu could see through the cultivation bases of these twenty people at a glance. Without exception, all of them started from the beginning, and two of them even reached the realm of heaven and man.

There are so many masters in a temple, and they are masters on the bright side, not even all of them. Li Mu has completely given up hope for this investigation.

As if he hadn't found anything, Li Mu replied casually: "Master, you are welcome! I can't wait to come here uninvited, and I still hope that the master will be happy.

Logically speaking, we shouldn't bring swords into the pure land of Buddhism. It's just that we bear the emperor's order, and we have to do it.

Presumably the master has also heard that the imperial court intends to investigate the property of the monk temple. We are all big bosses, in order not to disturb the pure place of Buddhism, how about master sending someone to take out the account book and let me go back to deal with business? "

The higher-ups only ordered an investigation, but they didn't say clearly how to do the investigation. That being the case, then take a bunch of books and go back and settle the business.

Anyway, relying on the group of people under him, there is a high probability that they will not be able to win Zhichan Temple. Instead of risking turning your face, it's better to just paddle.

Hearing Li Mu's words, the white-browed old monk was overjoyed at first, then frowned again. It is naturally best to just check the account books, not to search the temple, and not to go to the temple to check the properties in the temple.

But the question is, where is he going to get so many fake accounts?

In the past, there was no bloodshed in the previous inspections of the temple property. Every time the fight was over and the negotiation was over, who knew it could be played like this!

Refusal is definitely not an option, it is rare to meet such a well-behaved official. If you don't give face and mess up the good situation, you will lose a lot.

After a little thought, the white-browed old monk stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "General, please enter the temple to rest for a while. When we prepare the ledger, we will send it to the general immediately!"

Li Mu laughed and said, "Then there will be Master Lao!"

Everything was said without saying a word, a deal where everyone gets what they need, just so quietly and without interest.

...

A middle-aged monk said worriedly: "Master, if we just hand over the account book, something will happen!"

There is no way, there are too many properties in the temple, many of them are taboos, and there is no way to show them to the public.

Glancing at his apprentice, the old monk sighed and said, "You, why are you so stupid!

They just let them take the account book, and we have the final say on what account book to hand over. Pick a part of the account that can be seen, and hand it over to him.

In addition, find someone to make part of it now, and find a way to make it old. Try to make it impossible for people to find faults, so that they can easily explain when they go back.

Let people vacate several inns outside the temple, and ask them to rest outside for a few days. Officers' food and drinks are all based on food and living, in short, they must entertain people well.

Now is a special period, we can't make the first bird. Since they are willing to cooperate, then don't make any further complications. "

It's not that the old monk is timid, it's just that every time the property of monks and temples has been checked, some unlucky ones have been taken by the emperor to offer sacrifices to the flag.

No matter what the final result is, anyway, the temples and wealthy families that were the first to confront the imperial court will inevitably be destroyed.

It's best to be able to fool the past, even if you can't handle it, it will delay time. During this period, the early birds have popped up, they just need to follow the herd.

Hearing what the master said, the middle-aged monk, who was belatedly aware of it, immediately reacted: "What the master taught is that the disciples will arrange it now.

Since that Li Qianhu is saving face so much, do we have to prepare a generous gift and send someone over there first? "

As if satisfied with his apprentice's ability to infer other things from one instance, the white-browed old monk smiled slightly and said: "That's right! Don't be influenced by your uncle, you know how to fight and kill all day long.

You have to understand that fighting and killing can't solve the problem, and you have to use your brain more in everything. Da Zhou's officialdom has long been rotten, and this is our chance.

There are so many people now that it is not a good time to give gifts. At night, they will arrange for someone to deliver the things to that Li Qianhu's residence. As long as he is willing to accept the gift, then everyone is his own. "
