"Spring and autumn crops could have been supplied to the market. If I close it temporarily, what impact will it have?" Seeing the change in Xu Zhifu's face, Zhang Dai said with an even bigger sneer on his face.
"If someone takes the opportunity to hoard and make a profit, he will naturally be punished according to the law. Could it be that my sword will not harm him?"
After something like this has happened, are you still considering the consequences of killing a few big business owners?
Seeing Zhang Dai's face, everyone immediately changed their colors.
Magistrate Xu stared with a pale face: "Why is it irrelevant? The adjustment of the seven warehouses involves millions. If there is a slight discrepancy, it will be a big deal - you are crazy."
"Humph, I will bear all the responsibilities. I am the imperial envoy. You can only act according to orders. If you want to stop it, just report it to the emperor, and he will hold me accountable."
After Zhang Dai made his decision, he simply ignored whether Magistrate Xu and others agreed, and glanced coldly: "Everyone can fold up."
Seeing this, Magistrate Xu knew that this man was determined. There was a hint of joy on his face, but he immediately said sadly: "Brother Zhang Nian, this matter is too big. I hope you will think twice about how it will end!"
"..."
Although the two foxes were far away from the crowd, they had excellent hearing. Naturally, they heard all the conversations of the group and were shocked.
"Chirp!" The two foxes looked at each other and exchanged silent glances, as if to say, how could this matter cause such a big fuss all of a sudden?
Even if they are not human beings, they are foxes that can take shape. They are even smarter than ordinary people and can know more things. Knowing that Zhang Dai has really caused big things with his hands, he will really cause trouble if there is an emergency.
Big trouble.
However, by doing this, Zhang Dai obviously strangled the lifeblood of local officials and blocked all their plans.
After thinking about it, the two foxes no longer hesitated and immediately divided the work.
The little fox said that he would stay here and follow Magistrate Xu to see what Magistrate Xu would do next.
The big fox went back immediately and quickly reported the situation here to Su Ziji.
As soon as the two foxes were identified, a white shadow flashed past, and one fox left the granary.
Although it was afternoon, everyone's attention was focused on them because of the big incident Zhang Dai had caused, and no one noticed the fox galloping away in the corner.
The little fox stared at Magistrate Xu and couldn't help but think: "Such a big event has happened. What will the grandson think when he finds out?"
"The grandson is here!"
Su Ziji docked at the shore to investigate the case, and naturally there were also activities. Although he was ordered to "not be extravagant" and the original plan of paving the loess road and building a colorful square every 100 steps along the road was abandoned, the local magistrate still secretly guarded the whole process and reported the itinerary.
Flying reports back and forth like a shooting star.
When I looked at the entrance of the temple, I saw a carriage not far in front, but there were surprisingly few ceremonial guards. There were eight guards with swords at the front and back, and two ox carts in the middle.
Immediately ordered: "Be on guard and protect in secret."
"Yes!" Fifty or sixty plainclothesmen dispersed, and they saw Su Ziji getting off the oxcart with a casual look, followed by someone whom he knew. This was Cao Zhi, a fifth-rank official, who was ordered by the emperor to serve the queen.
Sun Jia.
The clock rang, melodious and deep, and then I heard the novices chanting sutras in unison. The rhythm of the bell and the wooden fish was quite thought-provoking.
An old monk with a sparse beard, dark and thin, came out and led two monks to join their hands and bow.
Just the old monk. The two monks behind him were a head taller than ordinary people. They were bronze-colored and had taut and bulging muscles. Su Ziji couldn't help but was startled, smiled and asked: "I heard that Sanskrit does not worship the emperor, why do you worship me now?"
?”
The old monk stood up and put his palms together and said, "My parents are living Arhats, your nobles are human Bodhisattvas, and your king is a living Brahma God. Is there any reason not to worship them?"
Su Ziji immediately smiled, and when he saw the name of the temple, he was even more surprised.
"Lanruo Temple, what does this mean?"
"Noble sir, Lan Ruo is a Sanskrit word. A place where cows are crowing can be placed as Lan Ruo, which means "away from the noise". Its meaning is an empty and quiet place."
Su Ziji is also the first temple. Although the temple is small, it is well-equipped. No matter where it is located or the layout, it gives people a quiet and elegant beauty.
The monk followed Su Ziji up the stairs and introduced the conditions of each palace leisurely along the way. He also said: "These are the four heavenly kings' palaces."
In the hall, eight monks sit down and chant sutras with their hands folded. A jar is filled with clear oil, and the wick of the lamp is burning during the day. This is an ever-bright lamp.
"Four kings?"
"Yes, there is a Brahma Mountain in Brahma. The mountain has four peaks. Each of them lives on a peak and protects the gate of heaven. Therefore, it is called the Four Heavenly Kings."
"Are there four days left?" Su Ziji listened.
"Yes, there are thirty-three days in Fanshan Mountain." The old monk introduced them one by one.
As he said this, he entered the aisle behind the Heavenly King's Hall. The central courtyard here was planted with pines and junipers, which provided a wide shade. The canopy of the trees provided a cool breeze that was slightly chilly to the bones.
There are twenty or thirty monks in the middle courtyard, all of them kneel down and chant sutras.
"...all the heavens and beings are very happy when they hear what Brahma says, and they believe in it and follow it...Nawuheluo Tayou, Duoluo Yeye, Qiaoluo Qiaoluo, all live together, Mara, Mara, Huluo moo.
, He Su Ta Qing Moo, Po Mo Qing, Suo Suo He!"
Su Ziji followed him into the hall, and Cao Zhi followed him. After a few steps away, he saw the Brahma God in the middle with a six-foot-long Dharma body. He lowered his eyes with compassion and was solemnly decorated with treasures. Four Bodhisattvas stood beside him. On the mural was the Arhat Protector Vajra.
The god holds a flower vessel in his hand and salutes.
Not far away, someone has been staring at the grandson. When he saw the grandson entering the palace, he was a little hesitant. What did the grandson come here for? Is it true that he is so leisurely and carefree that even if he is out to run errands, he still wants to come and offer incense?
?
Do you want to follow?
Several people followed and exchanged glances and asked each other.
Only one person followed. Although it was quiet here, there were people coming in and out, but there were only a few.
He pretended to be a pilgrim and went in. From a distance, he saw the monks welcoming the grandson into the main hall. He did not follow him in, but just came closer. The main door of the main hall was open, and he could see inside even from the outside.
I saw the monk talking respectfully to the grandson, who looked up at the statue of Brahma in the center of the small temple.
Is Taisun really here to hang out?
The people who were following him kept staring at Taisun, but they didn't notice that Taisun was talking to the monk. He only looked up at the statue of Brahma, which puzzled the people who were following him.
Then I thought that the old monk had come back again, but he was holding a Sanskrit Sutra in his hand, supported by a piece of yellow cloth. He handed it to Su Ziji with both hands and said respectfully: "This sutra is a collection of this temple, and it is the same as that of the small temple."
I have no destiny, but I have a destiny with you, so please accept it."
Su Ziji opened it with a smile, but saw that the old monk's expression changed slightly, but he didn't care and just read it by himself, very fast.
At this time, the monk had finished reciting the sutra, and there was a moment of silence. Everyone shook their clothes and clasped their hands solemnly. Strangely enough, a temple was silent for an instant. Suddenly, there seemed to be an inexplicable terror. Even Cao Zhi, who was not far away, was frightened and confused.
Jumping, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on my back.
Several birds in the nests in the nearby trees were frightened and flapping their wings came out to circle.
