After Yunxi finished saying this, he planned to leave. He still had some papers to mark and answer. But suddenly he saw a thin figure trying to sneak away. If that figure walked away in an honest way,
, Yun He didn't notice it yet, but she was so sneaky, so Yun He just noticed it.
As soon as he paid attention, he realized: This is Yunzhi, why did she come to class again?
Yunzhi was his sister. He was embarrassed to deal with it in front of the brothers. He said a few words and asked Shang Bing and others to go back first. Then he quickly walked forward, grabbed Yunzhi's hand and said, "Yunzhi, why are you doing this again?"
Are you here for class?"
Yun Zhi happened to be sitting in the corner today when Yun Xi was looking in from the window, so she was not seen by Yun Xi. Through the words of her brothers, she knew that Yun Xi was coming, so she secretly said that something was wrong, and then
After class, he planned to take advantage of the opportunity to slip away, but was caught by Yun He.
Yunzhi turned her head and said pitifully to Yunxi: "Brother Emperor, I was wrong."
Yunxi said to her dumbfounded: "Yunzhi, it's not like I can't let you come to the Royal Academy to attend classes, but when I asked you if you wanted to come to the Royal Academy to study all the time, and you said no, what do you think I should do?
what to do?"
Yunzhi said: "Didn't the emperor give Yang Shiqi a month's leave and ask him to go home to pick up his mother and come to Beijing? Now I don't have any classes, so I can only come and take classes."
Yunxi said: "Didn't Yang Shiqi leave some articles for you to read by yourself?"
Yunzhi said: "His lectures are very good on weekdays, but I don't like the articles he leaves for reading."
Yunxi also knows that Yunzhi is actually very smart. Although she is young, she has actually read more books and knows more words than Yunyun.
In fact, Yunxi didn't want to punish Yunzhi, so he just said a few words to Yunzhi. This was mainly because he was afraid that Fang Xiaoru or Chen Xingshan would remonstrate.
Yunzhi actually knew this, so she asked: "Brother, you are the emperor, why are you afraid of the ministers under you?"
Yunxi said: "It's not that I'm afraid. The main thing is that keeping Fang Xiaoru and Chen Xingshan next to me can let the ministers know that I still believe in Confucianism. Although it may not be their school, I always feel more at ease."
"Furthermore, Fang Xiaoru's imitation of Zhou's views coincide with mine on many things, and Chen Xingshan has been with me for many years. Although it is impossible to do practical things, it is not easy to change."
"And I know that they are all trustworthy and will never harm the country, so I keep them by my side instead of replacing them with others. Since I want to keep them in the cabinet, it is better to follow them."
"The most important thing is that Fang Xiaoru and Chen Xingshan's remonstrances are based on the rules set by the Emperor. The rules set by the Emperor, whether they are very reasonable or not, are to safeguard the Ming Dynasty. There can be exceptions.
But we cannot change it at will, because maintaining the rules is to protect ourselves."
Yunxi remembered that when Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive, he called an actor into the palace one night, but was discovered by a censor named Zhou. He strongly remonstrated with the rules and insisted that Zhu Yuanzhang come out to speak in person. And Zhu Yuanzhang actually came out in person.
He praised Zhou Yushi.
It was the middle of the night, and Zhu Yuanzhang still came out to speak in person. For what reason? It was not just to maintain the rules, but it was also because maintaining the rules was to protect himself.
Yunzhi was still young. Although she was smart, she still didn't understand these things. She said, "Brother, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
Yunxi smiled and touched Yunzhi's head and said, "You will understand when you grow up." Not to mention when he was nine years old, Yunxi in his previous life did not understand this until he was in college, so Yunxi also Not surprisingly.
Yun Zhi actually doesn't like being treated as a child, but since it's Yun He who is doing this, then it's a different matter and she just pretends to be a child.
Yunxi then asked Yunzhi to go back, and he took his servants back to Qianqing Palace.
The true and false news about Zhu Yuanzhang's reincarnation that Yunxi had previously asked the Buddhist and Taoist sects to release has now spread among Buddhist and Taoist believers across the country, especially in Shandong.
In Shandong, people believe in everything and believe in nothing. In fact, the same is true across the country, but Shandong is relatively more prominent.
Therefore, the White Lotus Sect’s hidden power in Shandong’s underground is not small. The local people, even those gentry families who have nothing to do with the White Lotus Sect, and those who work as government officials in government offices and county offices, actually all know a little bit about White Lotus. things to teach.
But there is no evidence. At this time, many White Lotus sects have changed to believe in Maitreya Buddha. Even if you raid the homes of ordinary believers, you cannot say that they are followers of the White Lotus sect just because they worship Maitreya. Secondly, the leaders are extremely hidden. Deep, for fear of being discovered; the people in Sanlai Yamen believe that doing more is better than doing less. As long as they don't cause trouble, pay a lot of money and food, and don't leave any trace, no one will care about these thankless things.
No one could have imagined that the leader of the White Lotus Sect Shandong General Altar, who had lost his head after being severely banned by Zhu Yuanzhang, was the head of the famous Pengjia village in Binzhou. Peng Ju himself sometimes showed off to his sons: " As the saying goes, what is real is what is real, and what is real is what is fictitious. I set up a stronghold openly and kept to myself. No one will associate me with the White Lotus Sect."
But now the altar leader of Shandong White Lotus Sect is sitting in his yard with an unnatural expression, talking to his subordinates.
His expression seemed to be that he had seen something dumbfounding, and he asked with his mouth wide open: "What! Rumors have spread that Zhu Yuanzhang is the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha. What's going on?"
The man sitting next to him is also one of the big leaders of the White Lotus Sect in Shandong, named Xu Dehu. I heard him say: "Master of the Altar, I asked people in the big Buddhist and Taoist temples in Shandong to find out. A few months ago, didn't we summon the abbots of major Buddhist and Taoist temples from all over the country to the capital? While in the capital, the little emperor seemed to have said that he dreamed that Zhu Yuanzhang was the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha, and also said that he had dreamed that Zhu Yuanzhang was the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha. Zhu Yuanzhang was the reincarnation of the Jade Emperor, so these rumors appeared."
"The largest Buddhist and Taoist sect in Shandong is the Taishan Sect. Now there are many more people outside who say that Zhu Yuanzhang is the reincarnation of the Jade Emperor than there are people who say that Zhu Yuanzhang is the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha."
Then he laughed to himself and said: "This little emperor can be said to do everything possible. He even uses this method, but it is just to deceive those ignorant people and women. It will not work for the gentry."
"Not only does it not work, if the gentry in these places knew what was going on, they might not know what they would say about the little emperor."
Peng Ju said: "No ordinary person would know where this kind of message came from. So the little emperor doesn't have to worry about the gentry knowing this. And there are more stupid people and foolish women in the world. This little emperor, It’s not simple.”
Xu Dehu also nodded and said: "Indeed. Let's talk about the believers in various churches in Shandong. Because of this, many people think that they are worshiping Zhu Yuanzhang."
While they were talking, another person came in. This person came in and saluted Peng Ju, and then said, "Brother Peng, something is not good!" Then he sat down and drank a bowl of water.
Peng Ju stopped talking to Xu Dehu and said to him: "Brother, is it really serious?"
This person said: "Not only is it serious, it is almost rebellious. There are actually less than half of the church leaders. The leader feels that it would be great if they could integrate into the mainstream Buddhist sect."
Xu Dehu said in surprise: "Brother Li, is there still such a thing?"
Brother Li said: "Why aren't there? Not only are there, there are many! If it weren't for the fact that Buddhism requires monks to become monks and cannot marry and have children, I'm afraid they would have rebelled without even hesitating."
Peng Ju said: "Brothers, don't use the word rebellion. It's just that it's really not good."
"But it's no wonder. Now is not the time when the world is in chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Rebellion has no chance of winning. Even if you are not afraid of death, you still have to think about your parents and family, so it's no wonder they are there."
However, although Peng Ju appeared to be excusing these people, in fact, he wanted to get rid of them all, but it was difficult to do so now.
So Peng Ju said: "However, I can't let them continue to make mistakes like this." He turned around and said to Xu Dehu: "Arrange it to call all the hall leaders and helmsmen to come to Binzhou for a gathering. I want to explain it to them personally. , telling them that they must not turn to Buddhism recognized by the Ming Dynasty, otherwise they will die without a burial place."
Xu Dehu nodded in agreement. But Li Er said: "It's great that Brother Peng is willing to come out and explain it in person. When I was traveling around Shandong, I wanted to explain the truth to them clearly, but I didn't know how to explain it well, so I couldn't. .Now that the eldest brother has personally come out to explain it, it must be a good thing."
"It's just," he immediately said, "is it too easy for them to come to Binzhou to be discovered? I heard that the young emperor of Ming Dynasty appointed Jinyiwei again. Many of our people were under Jinyiwei at the beginning. The dog showed up."
Peng Ju said: "Let them come in batches and forge a fake road guide from the local government office. Don't say they can't do it."
"In addition, even if it is dangerous, we can't care about it. For the future of our Shandong White Lotus Sect, we have to do it."
After listening to Peng Ju's words, Li Er and Xu Dehu knew that it was an emergency, so they nodded and went to make arrangements.
Peng Ju returned to the backyard and saw Wang Jingangnu and told him about the matter. Wang Jingangnu said: "You have done a good job, this is what you have to do, tell them face to face. These hall leaders and the helmsman have rebelled. I am afraid that the whole The White Lotus Sect in Shandong will be uprooted."
"When persuading people in person, if there are still stubborn ones, they must be eliminated on the spot, and there must be no future troubles."
