Chapter 1802 Religious Wedding and Staying Relatives
Two days later, he was leaving for Guangdong. He stayed in Guangdong for more than five months. After a series of repeated discussions, bribes, compromises, and threats on and off the stage, he got his wish and became the first leader of the Buddhist Association. After further discussions,
It was decided to honor the leader of the Buddhist Association as a guru, which means that he is the teacher of all Buddhists. It was also proposed by Jia Caojie, who came to the meeting on behalf of Tsongkhapa, who governs Tibetan Buddhism, to give Fangzheng the title of "omniscient"
All virtues and wisdom are like a master on the sea'. After receiving the title of 'All virtues and wisdom are like a master on the sea', Fang Zheng said to his disciples: "Even if I die now as a master, I will die without regrets."
While Guangdong was holding a Buddhist conference in full swing, the court was very calm. Yun did not carry out any reforms, and the officials would not look for trouble. In addition, the Ming Dynasty did not send troops to conquer overseas, and the officials felt that this was a normal day.
.
However, there is one yamen that is completely different from other yamen. Zhang Xuexi was not only granted a hereditary title and official position, but also became the consort, which made everyone in Gezhiyuan very excited. Zhang Xuexi's situation fully proves that being a researcher in Gezhiyuan is very important.
It's very promising. Even if you can't become a prince-in-law, getting a hereditary title will be worth it in your life. Everyone tried their best, even on holidays, and worked hard on 597.
However, most people did not get any results. On the contrary, Zhang Xuexi actually improved the steam engine. Not only could it pull heavier things, but he also used a smaller rail carriage to install the improved steam engine.
They arrived at the carriage. However, Zhang Xuexi failed when he wanted the carriage to start. He was a little frustrated. Instead, Yun sent someone to comfort him after learning about it. With His Majesty's comfort, Zhang Xuexi plucked up the courage to continue his research.
Time soon came to November. Fang Zheng came to the capital and reported to Yun what happened at the Buddhist conference. At this time, Wenyuan had also returned to the capital, and Yun met with Fang Zheng together. After Fang Zheng left, Yun told Wen Yuan
Said: "Wenyuan, religion is something that was born for poor people who are running around all day but can only make ends meet to avoid reality and give themselves something to rely on. Unless all people can live a very prosperous life, religion cannot be eliminated.
Yes, you should not think about eradicating religion, let alone reject it completely, but make use of religion. Especially Buddhism. In the Central Plains, Buddhism must be fought and suppressed, but outside the country, Buddhism must be encouraged and used to control outside the country. But you yourself also
Never really believe in any religion."
"Tianfang Sect and Cross Sect must not be allowed to spread in the Ming Dynasty. Both of these sects respect the same god, and believers in different places are closely connected. If someone believes in these two sects, it is up to them whether they obey the government or the pope.
It’s hard to say. This situation cannot be avoided, so they cannot be allowed to spread.”
"If the son knows this, he will never disobey his father's teachings." Wen Yuan immediately agreed.
At the end of November, the wedding of Min'er and Zhang Xuexi was held. As we all know, Her Royal Highness Princess Guangling is His Majesty's favorite princess, and Yun prepared the wedding with great fanfare, making it clear that it was going to be held in Dali, so everyone who was qualified, or thought they were qualified,
Everyone attending the wedding came, not only the nobles and vassal kings who stayed at home, but also the vassal kings who were entrusted overseas, Wen who was entrusted to Bengal, Qin Song, one of the three governors, and Zhang Wuji's wife Huainan Princess Yun
Zhidu returned to the capital. He even happened to meet Yun, who had been sealed off to the northern Hanzhou continent, and returned to the capital. Naturally, he came to celebrate her, making the wedding extremely lively.
On the day of the wedding, thousands of people watched. Yun prepared a dowry for Miner that made the top nobles gasp. Some people commented: "Could it be that His Majesty took half of the things in the treasury as a dowry? Otherwise, how could there be such a dowry?"
This is a lot? But in this case, early next year there will be a wedding of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the wedding of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, the wedding of His Royal Highness Princess Zichuan, and the wedding of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince. How can there be anything left to distribute to the Third Prince, Zichuan?
Princess Sichuan and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince? Your Majesty is too partial to His Highness Guangling. Although Her Highness Guangling is the eldest daughter, the dowry should be heavy, but it cannot be this heavy."
Yun dismissed their comments. When he married his daughter, he did not take any money from the treasury managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs and Duzhiyuan. All he used was palace money. What if he spent more? And now
He is very wealthy. The gold and silver brought back from the Hanzhou continent every year, except for buying cloth, bowls and chopsticks, all the rest goes into his warehouse. Not to mention the dowry for Min'er, even if it is owned by him,
It won’t be difficult for my daughter to buy several more copies of the same thing.
Shortly after Min'er got married, it was New Year's Eve. After New Year's Eve, from February to May in the 20th year of Jianye's reign, Wen Yuan, Wen Qi, Wen Lin and Wen Kun's weddings were held successively. Because there were too many weddings during this period
, Yun originally wanted to postpone Wen Kun's wedding to the end of the year, but was stopped by Yao. Yao said: "Husband, all the overseas vassal kings are in the capital now to celebrate Wenyuan's wedding, and Wen Qi and Wen Lin's wedding is also there.
Soon afterwards, they will also celebrate, and the wedding will be very lively. If Wen Kun's wedding is postponed to the end of the year, they will definitely not dare to celebrate again. Although the gifts are not bad, they will not look as good as the wedding with Wen Qi and others.
Wen Kun has always had a good reputation, so I’m afraid he won’t be happy seeing that his wedding is not as good as that of his brothers and sisters. So it would be better to arrange Wen Kun’s wedding in these few months.”
"Then arrange Wen Kun's wedding after Wen Lin." Yun agreed after hearing what she said was reasonable.
Wenyuan's wedding was as eye-catching as Min'er's. Wen Qi's, Wen Lin's and Wen Kun's weddings were less popular. After all, Wenyuan was the prince. However, all the feudal princes who came back from overseas attended the wedding without fail.
, Prince Xungui, who is already in the Central Plains, will not be absent. From the perspective of the scene, it is not bad.
After Wen Kun's wedding is held, the overseas vassal kings will leave Beijing and return to their fiefdoms, and Yun Zhi will also return to India to reunite with her husband. But Yun left his sister Yun Zhi and his brother Yun behind. Yun said to them:
"Second brother, fourth sister, our brothers have not seen each other for more than ten years since the second brother was sent to Hanzhou. The younger brother has something to talk to his elder brother. Fourth sister, since the fifteenth year of Jianye, you and Wu
Ji went to India and has not seen you for more than five years. I also have something to say to you. My brother has been very busy in the past few months and has not had much time to talk to you, so I will leave you in the Central Plains to accompany him.
A month or two."
"Moreover," Yun looked at Yun and Yunzhi and said, "Second brother and fourth sister, you haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Don't you have nothing to say?"
"This," Yun and Yun Zhi didn't know what to say for a moment. Because Yun became the emperor's grandson, Yun Yi wanted to avoid suspicion and was not good at dealing with girls, so Yun had always performed the eldest brother's duties to his four younger sisters.
Zhi You is the youngest of the four sisters and has not had much contact with Yun, so they really have nothing to say.
However, Yunzhi quickly said with a smile: "My sister had already guessed that the third brother would keep the second brother and my sister in Beijing for a few days. Naturally, she had to wait for the third brother to say something to persuade my sister to stay before she agreed."
"Haha, you are always so smart." Yun said with a smile. He looked at Yun again: "Don't you want to stay in the Central Plains and chat with your younger brother?"
"I haven't been back to my hometown for more than ten years. The next time I go back may be ten years later. I also want to stay in the capital for a few more days to catch up with my relatives and reminisce about the past. Naturally, I also want to talk to the officials." Yun has already thought about it.
The words are spoken and the words are spoken.
"Okay, in that case, you will join me on a northern tour in a few days." Yun said.
"Bei Xun?" Yun and Yunzhi said in surprise at the same time.
"It's the Northern Patrol." Yundao said: "Since the winter of the sixth year of Jianye, I haven't been to any place other than Fengyang Mansion for more than thirteen years. I have long wanted to do a patrol. It happened that Tianjin was newly established last year.
Shibo Division, this Shibu Division is another very important step for me to promote the prosperity of the north, so I decided to go and have a look in person."
"The route is from Beijing to the north along the canal between the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers to Xuzhou, from Xuzhou to Yanzhou Prefecture, Jinan Prefecture, Hejian Prefecture to Tianjin; on the return journey, it is from Tianjin to Peiping, and from Peiping south to Baoding, Zhending, Shunde
Wait all the way south to Xiangyang and take a boat back to Beijing from Xiangyang."
"It will take at least four months to go all the way. I stayed in the Central Plains for too long." Yin said. He returned to the Central Plains by taking advantage of the northern equatorial warm current in the northern hemisphere summer. If he wanted to go back, it was the most suitable place.
It was still summer, and he was returning along the North Pacific warm current in the northern hemisphere. But if he accompanied Yun on the northern patrol, it would be the end of September in four months, and there would be no suitable ocean current to return to. Even if he went back against the ocean current in winter, it would not be possible.
No, but it was dangerous after all, and he didn't want to take the risk.
And he didn't want to leave the fief for too long. His eldest son was his legitimate son, the same age as Min'er, and he was already twenty-three years old. Of course, twenty-three was the age to govern the country, and Yun also handed over the power to him before leaving the fief.
The eldest son. But like most middle-aged kings, he was also worried that the prince would usurp power, so although he handed over the power to the eldest son, he also kept a hand. But he was not very relieved about the hand he had left, for fear that
He left the fief for too long and his power was completely taken away by his eldest son.
"This is easy to handle." Yun said with a smile: "Let the fleet go to Zhigu Port and wait while you board the ship from Tianjin and return to Hanzhou. You can reach Tianjin in July at the latest, so your trip will not be delayed."
"In this case, I am willing to go to the north together with the officials." Yun agreed.
After receiving his agreement, Yun looked at Yun Zhi again. "My sister is still in the Governor's Mansion in India and Wuji is watching. There is no need to worry. How could you not agree?" Yun Zhi said with a smile.
"Okay. It's settled then. In a few days, we will go on a tour to the north together." Yun finally said with a smile.
