First Prince of Ming Dynasty Chapter 592

  Chapter 592 Big real person

   After saying that, Zhang looked up to the superior emperor normally, and hoped that the Holy Majesty Gu Nian would not persecute him so much in the past. After all, the Zhang family has made a contribution, and now the Zhang family is also needed to appease the common people and gentry in the south of the Yangtze River.

  Zhu Yuanzhang finally said coldly: "Is there auspicious or ominous signs in the south of the Yangtze River? Why are the people terrified and rumors even spread to the palace? What is the Tianshi Mansion doing?"

   "Didn't you say in the past that there is a talisman in luck that can make the world stable, and that no monsters, monsters, sprites and monsters can come out to make trouble, why are things happening in your Longhu Mountain now!"

  At the end, the servant of the Ministry of Rites suddenly stood up and said, "This is a crime of deceiving the emperor, which cannot be punished!"

Zhang Normal's expression remained unchanged and he showed no sign of impatience or resentment. The same was true for the monks and Taoists on the side. They all bowed their heads and chanted. There has to be a good reason too.

  Zhu Yuanzhang glanced over and the coldness in his eyes was even worse: "I declare to the world that the title of Taoist Celestial Master will be abolished, and that the title of Zhengyisijiao Dazheng will be awarded instead. From now on, all the masters of Longhushan will be called Dazhengren."

  Zhang normal has come to his senses, leaned over and smiled slightly: "The poor Taoist is serving the will of the Holy One on behalf of Longhushan, and he dare not call himself a celestial master anymore."

   Zhu Biao didn't see much joy in his eyes. Zhang Normal is much smarter than Kong Kejian after all. Longhushan has been established in the world for many years and rooted in the believers. The people who believe in religion are definitely much more than the scholars who believe in Confucius.

   It's not that he is not a celestial master if he is not recognized as a celestial master in the official documents of the court. As long as the majority of believers still recognize him, he is still a celestial master, and there is no difference.

  The gentry and believers in the south of the Yangtze River will still pay homage to the descendants of Zhang Daoling and Zhang Tianshi.

One Confucian family and one Zhang family are genuine millennium families who have enjoyed prosperity and wealth for generations. It is often said that in the old days, Yan Fei flew into the homes of ordinary people before Wang Xietang. The Zhang family is still there in later generations, and although they are no longer at their peak, they are still continuing to pass on.

Zhang normal tossed the Buddha dust and said with a smile: "Poverty Dao and others have a negative entrustment, but I can assure you that the vision in the south of the Yangtze River will never affect the fate of the country. Let it be auspicious. If it is an ominous omen, it will be spread to Yangping to govern the capital The suppression of Gongyin will never cause turmoil."

Zhu Biao nodded slightly, but what he thought in his heart was that as long as this person is still there, there will be no turmoil in Longhu Mountain, and it is fortunate to have such a teacher as a tutor. Even Xiao Zhu didn't want to see such a character.

What's more, this person is still greedy. He wants Taoism to be superior to Buddhism. Zhang Tianshi not only has to be in charge of Taoism, but also Zen Buddhism. It is a good thing for Taoism, but it is taboo for the court. Faith has the power to change the world Yes, the Taiping Road Red Scarf Army has confirmed this.

Moreover, Zhu Biao reckoned that if it wasn't because of his father's power to found the country today, but if he, the crown prince, was summoned by the prince, Zhang normal would probably not come to Beijing, and he would just use an excuse to suppress evil omens and disasters and stay in Longhu Mountain up.

  Huitan saw that the atmosphere in the hall was a little tense, raised his hands together in front of his chest, recited the Buddha's name, got up and spoke, and expressed his desire to go to the Western Regions to the emperor.

  Although Hui Tan is in charge of Buddhist affairs in the world, the officials sent by the imperial court to assist him have always presided over the affairs, so Zhu Yuanzhang is really not willing to part with him, not to mention that he is not young.

   But a few words of persuasion were fruitless, and Zhu Biao helped to persuade him a few more words, so he had to go, but it was inevitable that the sense of Buddhism and Taoism in his heart became worse.

People from outside the country really don't care about the reason why the whole world is the king's land, and the land is the king's minister. If everyone is like this, whoever farms and who guards the frontier against foreign aggression in this world will all go to pray to God and worship Buddha Just wait for the pie to fall from the sky.

Soon the situation broke up. Before leaving, the emperor ordered Zhenren Zhang to stay in the capital without edict and not to leave the capital without authorization. Zhu Biao didn't say anything to them. hypocritical.

Zhu Biao is good at acting, but he doesn't have the habit of disgusting others as well as himself, and if he is not firm at this time, I am afraid that after he ascends the throne, there will be visions and ominous omens every now and then, and he will be forced to issue an edict every three days to say, in case Fang is guilty, and I am guilty.

The people from the Ministry of Rites led the monks to leave the palace, and Zhu Biao stepped into the Jinshen Palace again after a long time. This is the center of the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty. I don't know how many government orders that affect tens of millions of people are drawn up every day. I have to say , Zhu Biao really missed him a little bit.

  Zhu Biao didn't hide his emotions. He looked around at the familiar layout, the corners of his mouth were raised, and the slight unhappiness he had just lost was instantly lost.

  Going back to the Jinshen Palace and taking a seat first, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sulking, couldn't help laughing at his son's appearance, and said, "It's only a few days' work, look at your worthless appearance."

   "Father, have you ever heard that a man should not be powerless for a day, and I sincerely think this is even a reasonable saying."

  Zhu Yuanzhang chanted a sentence and then laughed: "Well said, but we think it should be that a man must die without power for a day!"

   "Ha ha ha ha ha."

  Father and son looked at each other and smiled. Zhu Yuanzhang never resented his son's ambition, but was afraid that he would not. He not only had full trust in his son, but also had absolute confidence in himself.

  Who is he, Zhu Yuanzhang, if he is still afraid that his son will seize power, then he might as well die!

Zhu Biao happily walked back to his exclusive desk and sat down, twisted his buttocks vigorously, then leaned back and said lazily: "I am afraid that Zen Master Huitan will go away forever, and my father has to make a decision as soon as possible." The next suitable person should be the successor, preferably Zen."

   "It's not in a hurry, anyway, he doesn't care about things anyway, if he wants to go west, then send him more envoys to visit the countries in the Western Regions, just as we were planning to send people there."

Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and said: "In this case, why not take advantage of Zhang Tongtong and Hui Tan to readjust the duties and powers of the Senglusi Daolusi, at least to determine the title, rank, salary regulations, monks and Taoist officials? Appointments and dismissals are established, examinations are regular, transfers are orderly, and differences in clothing and accessories have to be clarified."

  These are complicated to say, but in fact, they deprive the power of the self-contained system of monks and Taoists from ancient times into the hands of the imperial court, and everything must be controlled and governed by the imperial court.

  People outside the party also become people in the system, which is also part of the centralization of power. It is more rigorous and more systematic. From the central government to the prefectures, states, and counties, a new system that is compatible with the administrative system has been established.

The **** serving in Jinshen Palace offered tea and snacks, and the father and son took a sip silently. They each calculated in their hearts that this move would cause problems, as well as the backlash from monks and Taoists. After all, this was shaking their roots. They have the final say, and they need to be recognized by the court after they can.

   And in this way, the imperial court will definitely limit the degree issued every year. After all, monks and Taoists are exempt from tax and corvee. If there are more monks and priests, the tax collected by the world and the young and strong corvee that can be commanded will be less.

  If the assessment every few years is stricter, forcing monks who fail their homework to return to secular farming, then how can they prosper orthodoxy broadcast teachings, so the rebound must be strong.

Zhu Biao suddenly thought that Zen Master Huitan would not be so eager to leave the place when he was aware of it. No matter what he did, he was a great Zen master recognized by the imperial court and the monks all over the world. resist…

   Rubbed the center of his brows helplessly, as expected of a person of Zen Buddhism, those who have no heart, have no heart, such as the body, the inside is like wood and stone, unshakable. The outside is like empty space, neither blocked nor hindered, no place to go, no appearance, no gain or loss.

  Zhu Biao sat upright and looked at the many memorials piled up on the desk in front of him. When he opened them, they were all copied by one person. The original memorials should have been typed back by his father after reviewing them.
