The suburbs of the imperial capital are filled with ancient monuments.
Although at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, many people felt that this imperial capital was inferior to Nanjing, the ancient capital that occupied the prosperous and prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River, and inferior to Chang'an, which occupied the natural dangers of Guanzhong and was renamed by Taizu. Emotionally speaking, they were not willing to
Let the metropolis once occupied by the Mongols be used as the imperial capital, but all failed to withstand Emperor Taizu's insistence.
And the Emperor Taizu was a restless person. Although he could not patrol the world unscrupulously, he still traveled all over the capital area, leaving countless legends behind. By the way, he also made many people who were not very famous originally
In one fell swoop, the scenic spot has become a place now crowded with tourists.
For example, Lingguang Temple was first built in the Tang Dynasty and was destroyed and rebuilt many times through the Liao and Jin Dynasties.
"Emperor Taizu took people to Longquan Temple incognito. After visiting the Immortal Recruiting Pagoda handed down from the Liao Dynasty, he spent the night in the tower. It is said that that night, Emperor Taizu dreamed that he had lost a tooth. Chapter 1
The next day, he called the abbot of the temple and said he wanted to dig up the pagoda. Of course, those monks refused, but later they panicked when they heard that the emperor was coming."
"As a result, Emperor Taizu ordered the Ministry of Works to bring in skilled craftsmen, and they dug up the tooth relic of the Buddha!"
At this moment, standing in front of the renovated and solemn Zhaoxian Pagoda, bathing in the autumn sunshine, Zhu Ying said with joy: "Because of this, Emperor Taizu later made so many decisions for those Buddhist temples and monks.
There are rules, but no one dares to say anything, because it is not dug out of the mud, it is a pile of stone letters dug out by monks under the instructions of craftsmen!"
"When the monks finally took out the Buddha's tooth relic, there was an inscription on the tooth written by the monk Shanhui on each side of the wooden box. The news spread to all corners of the country, and countless faithful men and women came to pay homage..."
Listening to Zhu Ying's story about Taizu's search for the Buddha's tooth, Zhang Shou couldn't help but chew his teeth secretly. Taizu, a senior, actually dug out the Buddha's tooth that had been dusty for more than a thousand years in advance. And the purpose of digging it out was not just
It is to add a layer of halo to myself as the reincarnated Buddha, but to legitimately cast a spell on Buddhist temples and monks. It is really a shrewd calculation...
Compared to digging for other treasures, this skill is much better!
"Just because the Buddha's tooth was dug out, Longquan Temple became Lingguang Temple with a stroke of Emperor Taizu's pen. Other ancient temples and nunneries in the three nearby mountains were also found, and Taizu built some more, totaling eight
It is called the Eight Great Places. Because there is a Buddha tooth in Lingguang Temple, it ranks first.”
When Zhang Shou just went up the mountain, he discovered that the Chang'an Temple in the Badachu was missing - but thinking that the Chang'an Temple in later generations was also destroyed and never restored to its original appearance, let alone open to the public, he didn't think it was wrong.
Nothing strange. After all, Emperor Taizu miraculously found Lingguang Temple as the first place to find the Buddha's tooth. In these days, it can be considered politically correct.
As for the other ancient temples and new temples that have been moved forward one by one, this small problem does not matter at all.
After taking a look at the endless flow of pilgrims in Lingguang Temple, Zhang Shou, who had been looking at the open space on the side of the pagoda just now, asked in a low voice: "There are so many people, why don't we go in another day?"
Zhu Ying immediately smiled understandingly, nodded, and led Zhang Shou to the side door. When she was gradually away from the surging crowd, she blinked at Zhang Shou: "Actually, I have followed the emperor and my father since I was very young.
I've seen this before, but I haven't seen it before. I just think that the Buddha's tooth looks quite ordinary. If you want to see it, I will tell the emperor to close the temple in the future and take a good look at it."
Zhang Shou immediately smiled. He was not a devout believer. It was okay to pay homage, so why close the temple? When the two of them left the temple and met up with Ah Liu and other guards, they took advantage of the sightseeing to climb the mountain. As for other Buddhist temples, Zhang Shou also visited other Buddhist temples.
After checking in, Zhu Ying, who was accompanying me, was even more indifferent and reached the top of the mountain in a short while.
Because I got up early and left Beijing, I had some snacks before going up the mountain. It was already late afternoon when I reached the top of the mountain. Several guards knew it and went to the side with Ah Liu to prepare a belated lunch - the two food boxes they brought.
There are wine, vegetables and snacks in the box, and the food box is equipped with a charcoal-fired sandwich, which is suitable for picnics.
But what they didn't expect was that Zhu Ying, who was talking to Zhang Shou not far away, suddenly came back.
Not only did she come back, Zhu Ying was also unhappy. After sitting down on a stone bench angrily, she put her cheeks in her hands and remained silent. Seeing this, several guards looked at each other for a while, and then someone took a look at her.
Ah Liu, I hope people can go to Zhang Shou to make peace. However, no matter what they think, Ah Liu is just like a wooden man, sitting there looking at the food box in a daze.
Didn't Zhu Ying always think that Zhang Shouqian was very good? It was rare to go on a trip today, and the atmosphere had been very good all the way before. Why did the young couple have a falling out? You know, the wife had hinted before that she would immediately wait for the Duke of Guo to come back.
For weddings!
Only Ah Liu noticed that while Zhu Ying was stepping on the grass roots on the ground as if to vent her anger, she pulled an unlucky branch next to her and pulled down the leaves one by one. However, from the corner of her eye, she kept paying attention to Zhang Shou's side.
He was still mumbling incessantly.
"I'm so angry, you don't know the heart of a good person... You did such a dangerous thing but you still want to send me away!"
Zhang Shou, who was suspected of having a falling out with Zhu Ying, unknowingly walked a dozen steps in the other direction. He seemed a little absent-minded, burying his head in the ground while walking, not looking ahead at all. Fortunately, the top of the mountain was no better than the mountain.
The Lingguang Temple at his feet was full of incense, so there were not many people there. He didn't look up until he heard the arguments in front of him.
"How can this question be calculated like this..."
"You are all wrong, it should be calculated like this..."
Finding that there were three young men in front of him gathered around the stone table, pointing and poking at a piece of paper, Zhang Shou was startled for a moment, and then stepped forward. Seeing that the three people were arguing about the admissions of Jiuzhangtang, he handed in
When asked about one of the three questions posted to the Shuntian government office, he did not say a word and just stood there quietly.
One of the tall young men dictated the extremely complicated steps to solve the question, and then showed off: "This is what I did when I submitted the paper to the Shuntian government office!"
"Huh, that Dr. Zhang admires simplicity the most. He may not be impressed by your complicated algorithm!"
Zhang Shou raised his eyebrows and walked straight forward, but when he reached behind them, before he could even speak, two young men suddenly came up to him from the left and the right, tightly trapping him in the middle.
At this time, a young man who had his head buried as if he was working on a question just raised his head.
"Sure enough, Dr. Zhang can attract you here only by using what you are most interested in."
"Who are you?"
Seeing that Zhang Shou tried his best to be calm, but his elegant and handsome face was tense, the young man with the same outstanding appearance couldn't help showing a proud expression. He glanced contemptuously at the sword on Zhang Shou's waist, and then said nonchalantly
: "Who am I? Haha, of course I am the one who gave you this sword. I didn't expect that I had hinted you like this. Not only did you not know how to restrain yourself, you actually continued to show off."
"So you are the one who sent the sword to threaten me." Zhang Shou suddenly laughed, "I thought it was a sword given to a hero."
Seeing that Zhang Shou was clearly in his own hands, yet he was still uttering arrogant words. The young man suddenly became angry and angry. However, when he thought of today's purpose, he took a deep breath and temporarily expelled all those negative emotions.
"Stop talking nonsense, who are you? You dare to covet Zhu Ying! If you are sensible, go back to the countryside! If she hadn't lost her mind and persuaded the old woman of the Zhu family, you would still be your wife in the countryside.
Mudleg is farming..."
Zhang Shou, who had just regained his composure, gradually changed his expression. He was not angry, but a little subtle and strange. He looked at the young man up and down, until the other party gradually noticed his eyes, and he looked increasingly angry and irritable. He said
His words became increasingly unpleasant, and he sighed.
"Sir, you specifically went to Zhao Guogong's mansion to give me an unsheathed sword by name, just to threaten me to stay away from Yingying?"
"What Yingying? What qualifications do you have to call her Yingying... ugh!"
Just when the young man was furious about the crime, Zhang Shou, who was clearly surrounded by the two men just now, suddenly moved. He suddenly stamped on the instep of the man on his left, and when the man was in pain
While letting go and squatting down, he gave the man on his right a heavy elbow blow. Then, he took a step back and calmly drew out his sword.
The heels and elbow pads of the special shoes were really uncomfortable to wear, but for the sake of the convenience of beating and kicking people, he decided to generously forgive Ah Liu for his bad idea, and at the same time, he also forgave himself for not having to suffer in vain.
"love rival".
"I have only learned swordsmanship for a day, and I don't know how it will go. If I fail, please forgive me."
Seeing a cold light suddenly waving towards him, the young man's complexion suddenly changed. He completely forgot that there was a stone table between him and Zhang Shou, and actually turned around and ran away. However, Zhang Shou, who was pretending to be holding a sword, saw him not far away.
In a seemingly empty area, several tough men in black suddenly appeared and surrounded them and intercepted them. He couldn't help but sigh.
Neither he nor Wang Datou expected that the messenger who sent him the sword had nothing to do with the secret messages that he had helped Wang Datou decipher before. Now Wang Datou was going to be furious. The secret plan he had specially planned to lure the snake out of the hole actually led to
Is it the mastermind behind this, but this guy?
Fortunately, after he proposed it yesterday, Wang Datou immediately agreed and said that he had received the news that others were indeed waiting for the opportunity... Fortunately, he had just managed to persuade the worried Zhu Ying to leave, and ended up being caught alone.
