Zhang Yingjing finally couldn't hold back a sigh.

He is the cousin of Emperor Chongzhen, and he was not hacked by the rebels, so the rebels respect Longhushan.What choice is there but to follow suit?Is it possible to call Taoist priests to fight?

Under Fei Yinggong's supervision, Zhang Yingjing began to investigate Dudu, and dismissed more than 400 Taoist priests at one time.

It has been several days since these things were done.

Fei Yinggong said again: "The domestic servants in Tianshi's mansion will also return their body contracts. Those who are willing to stay will sign short-term employment documents. Those who do not want to stay, I will take them away. Also, in the future, they will not be allowed to leave." Abuse servants!"

Zhang Yingjing said: "How can a person who cultivates the Tao practice abuse?"

"That might be." Fei Yinggong sneered.

Zhang Yingjing blushed, and ordered his son to summon the servants.

No.40 Zhang Yuanji, the sixth-generation angel, once plundered men as servants and women as servants, extorting property.He also set up a private prison at home, killed more than 40 people, and even killed a whole family.

At that time, the family was almost ransacked and the family was wiped out. Lu Yu, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, suggested that the real person's account should be deprived, and he would not be canonized as a celestial master in the future.

It's a pity that there are too many people begging for mercy. Zhang Yuanji, the murderous celestial master, was only imprisoned for two years, punished with a staff of one hundred, and dispatched to Suzhou to serve as an army.

If you think about the pickling of the Confucian Mansion in Shandong, you will know how dirty the Zhang family in Longhushan is.The tens of thousands of acres of land around Shangqing Town are all controlled by the Tianshi Mansion, so that Fei Yinggong had to bring five hundred soldiers to preside over the division of the land!

Fei Yinggong didn't leave, so he stayed in Tianshi Mansion for the New Year.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Yingjing took his eldest son Zhang Hongren and a dozen Taoist priests to Ji'an with Fei Yinggong.

All the way by boat, the line is very fast.

Inside the cabin, father and son Zhang Yingjing and Zhang Hongren sighed.The foundation of Longhushan could not be kept. With tens of thousands of acres of land, only 900 acres were left, which was reserved entirely according to the number of legal Taoists.

What can I do in the future?

In fact, they should thank Zhao Han.Otherwise, during the San Francisco Rebellion, the Tianshi Mansion would be burned to the ground by Geng Jingzhong's rebels, and all the property in the mansion would be looted by the rebels.

"Father, let's just surrender that thief Zhao." Zhang Hongren said, he could no longer care about his cousin Chongzhen.

Zhang Yingjing sighed and said, "Can you get back the property if you surrender?"

Zhang Hongren said: "Persuade to come in!"

Zhang Yingjing's eyelids twitched, and he cursed in a low voice: "You are confused. If one day Bandit Zhao is destroyed and we are forced to follow the bandit, there is room for change. If Tianshi Mansion persuades him to enter, he will be tied to Bandit Zhao. I'm afraid There is a catastrophe beyond redemption!"

"The whole of Jiangxi is gone. I heard that all the provinces in the north and the south are in disaster. There are bandits inside and Tartars outside. How can Ming be saved?" Zhang Hongren said, "We only want to persuade the imperial court. No matter who will unify the world in the future, as long as it is not Ming , Tianshi Mansion will be fine."

"Let me think again." Zhang Yingjing frowned.

Zhang Hongren persuaded: "Don't think about it anymore, don't miss the merit of persuasion. As long as it is done, Tianshi Mansion can be carried forward in the new dynasty!"

Zhang Yingjing thought about it and decided to act safely, that is, he spoke ambiguously, as if he was trying to persuade him to come in, but he didn't.

The group of Taoist priests were taken to Ji'an Mansion, where they were left to dry for several days, and finally they were summoned by Zhao Han.

The moment Zhang Yingjing saw Zhao Han, he was shocked by his youth.Then following this shock, he showed a more exaggerated expression of surprise, and muttered to himself: "How could this be? It really is!"

Zhao Han asked with a smile, "What is the Heavenly Master talking about?"

Zhang Yingjing cupped his hands and bowed: "A few years ago, the Dao veins of Dragon and Tiger Mountain fled away. The old Taoist first arrived in Ji'an the day before yesterday, and saw the dragon and tiger aura in the city, in colorful shapes, this is the aura of the Son of Heaven!"

"Is that so?" Zhao Han asked in surprise.

Zhang Yingjing made a bow and said, "It's true!"

Zhao Han said: "Since this is the case, I will immediately go to the imperial court and relay Zhang Tianshi's words, asking Emperor Chongzhen to move his capital to Ji'an, so that the Ming Dynasty can continue."

"Uh……"

Zhang Yingjing choked suddenly, and his son Zhang Hongren didn't know how to respond.

"Hahahaha!"

Zhao Han burst into laughter suddenly: "Tianshi don't panic, just joke around."

A joke made Zhang Yingjing lose his temper, and he dealt with it more carefully: "Zhao Zongzhen is full of heroism, and the old way is intimidated by majesty, so I am at a loss for words, and I hope you will forgive me."

Zhao Han looked at Zhang Hongren and asked, "How old is Mr. Ling?"

"Reporting to the general town, there are two out of twenty trails." Zhang Hongren bowed respectfully.

Zhao Han said: "Have you ever married a wife and have children?"

Zhang Hongren replied: "I have been practicing Taoism since I was a child. I have never married a wife and have no children."

"You can stay in Ji'an," Zhao Han said casually, "In the future, you should not only read Taoism, but also "Datong Collection". It would be even better if you can learn "Mathematics" and "Geometry."

This is to keep hostages?

But it's not necessary, right? Who would keep Taoist priests as hostages?

Zhang Yingjing couldn't find a breakthrough now. His original plan was to say that Zhao Han was a son of heaven.No matter whether Zhao Han believed it or not, he would be very happy thinking about it. Which rebel would not like to hear such words?

As long as Zhao Han is happy, he can continue to contact and make Zhao Han happy.

Then, take the opportunity to ask Zhao Han to give him land, and he can also bestow all kinds of property.If Zhao Han is wiped out by the imperial court, the Zhang family can escape; if Zhao Han wins the world, the Zhang family can flourish.

But this routine was only at the beginning, and was blocked by Zhao Han.

What should I say next?

Zhang Yingjing sorted out his words and said respectfully: "The town's benevolence and love for the people has won the hearts of the people of Jiangxi. Although the old Taoist practiced in the mountains, he has heard of the prestige of the town for a long time, and now he sees it. instrument."

Zhao Han smiled and said, "Shangqing Town is not in the mountains, is it? It has convenient transportation and fertile land."

Who is discussing with you where Shangqing Town is? The key point is whether the second half of the sentence is good!

Zhang Yingjing completely understood at this time, Zhao Han didn't like this at all, he could only bow and say: "The chief town wants to deal with the Tianshi mansion, please ask for instructions, the old master will definitely obey."

Zhao Han put away his smile: "From now on, the number of Taoist priests in Tianshi Mansion, Shangqing Temple, and Zhengyiguan will be based on the current number. It can be reduced but not increased, and the land of the people cannot be taken away. If there is any violation, the heaven will be taken away." Master's title!"

Zhang Yingjing's face was ashamed, what about the huge Tianshi mansion, plus two Taoist temples, more than 200 Taoist priests?

Zhengyiguan is the ancestral home of Zhengyi!

Zhao Han pointed to Zhang Hongren again: "Stay in Ji'an, learn more new things, and return to Longhu Mountain after you have mastered Mathematics and Geometry."

Zhang Hongren was speechless, his mind went blank, and he had no idea what Zhao Han wanted to do.

Chapter 238 [Dominate Jiangxi]

Zhang Yingjing soon knew what Zhao Han was going to do.

A few days later, Zhao Han directly held a Buddhist and Taoist conference. In addition to the Taoist priests from Tianshifu, there were also Qingyuan Temple, Donglin Temple, Xilin Temple, Xianren Cave, Xiandu Temple, Kongshan Temple and so on.

Before Zhao Han himself showed up, a group of monks and priests stared blankly.

Greeting each other, the atmosphere is even more awkward, because the sects are too complicated.

Qingyuan Temple is the ancestral home of the Qingyuan Sect, and Donglin Temple is the ancestral home of the Pure Land Sect. The former is Zen Buddhism, and the latter is Pure Land Sect.

Monks of Zen and Pure Land Buddhism may still be able to communicate in a friendly manner.But the Tianshi Mansion and the Immortal Cave are really nothing to talk about. It is said that the Immortal Cave is the place where Lu Dongbin practiced, and Lu Dongbin is the patriarch of the Quanzhen School.

The monks waited for a long time, and Zhao Han finally came in, accompanied by a Taoist priest.

"Daoist, please take the first seat." Zhao Han's attitude was very respectful.

The Taoist declined and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the town, Zhang Tianshi should be the first seat. If you are poor, you can sit with me."

Zhao Han's attitude suddenly became tough again: "I said whoever takes the first place should be the first!"

The Taoist was a little embarrassed, and apologized to Zhang Yingjing. Zhang Yingjing could only give up the head seat on the Taoist side.

At the same time, both monks and Taoists were guessing who the Taoist priest was.

Zhao Han glanced at Zhang Yingjing: "What, you're not happy?"

"Don't dare." Zhang Yingjing answered quickly.

"Look for yourself!" Zhao Han smashed out a letter, which fell in front of Zhang Yingjing.

Zhang Yingjing picked it up to read, and was trembling with fright. Now he didn't even want to lose face, and knelt down on the ground and said, "President, please forgive me!"

It was Fei Yinggong who took Zhang Yingjing and his son away, and asked people to continue to investigate Tianshi Mansion, Shangqing Palace and Zhengyiguan.Soon someone reported that many Taoist priests hid in small temples in the mountains during Zhang's self-examination, so more than 1300 Taoist priests were found in the mountains.

As for the land property, not only the tens of thousands of acres around Shangqing Town, but also various hidden fields, there are nearly 20 acres of land in total!

Zhang Yingjing and his son did not do evil in person, but many of the Taoist priests and house slaves in Tianshi Mansion can be called bullies.There were more than [-] murder cases investigated in just one month, and the number of people who were forced to sell their sons and daughters was hard to count.

Zhao Han sneered and said, "Father and son, you will stay in Ji'an Mansion for the time being. It will not be too late for you to go back when you find out the matter. From now on, the Zhang family can only be in charge of Tianshi Mansion, Shangqing Palace, Zhengyi Mansion, etc. Wait for the temples under the Tianshi Mansion, the members of the Zhang family are not allowed to interfere in any affairs!"

"Xiaodao obeys." Zhang Yingjing lay prone on the ground.

Zhao Han pointed to the Taoist priest he had brought with him and said, "Let me introduce to you, this is Daoist Liu Xianwei of Zaoge Mountain Chongzhen Temple."

All the monks greeted the salute immediately, but didn't pay much attention to it.

There are many schools of Taoism, but they can be roughly divided into Zhengyi Taoism and Quanzhen Taoism.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhengyi was regarded as authentic by the imperial court, and Zhengyiguan of the Zhang family happened to be the ancestral home of Zhengyi.

Zaoge Mountain belongs to the ancestral court of Lingbao School, and is listed as the three great courts of Zhengyi School together with Longhu Mountain and Maoshan Mountain.Under the canonization of the imperial court, the real person of Longhu Mountain is the second rank, and the spiritual officials of Zaoge Mountain and Sanmao Mountain are both the eighth rank.

Zhao Han was too lazy to discuss with these monks and Taoists, and directly announced: "Ji'an General Military Mansion, add a religious department. Appoint Chongzhenguan Liu Daochang as the director of Zhengyi; appoint Master Huiyin of Donglin Temple as the director of Shanshi. The rest All temples and Taoist temples must be under the jurisdiction of the priest!"

Although Zhang Yingjing was afraid in his heart, he couldn't help it: "Mr. Town, Zhengyiguan is the righteous ancestral court."

Zhao Han said with a gloomy expression, "As I said just now, the Zhang family will only be in charge of the Heavenly Master's Mansion from now on, and the abbot who is watching will choose another Taoist Gao Xian to take over. Also, the Heavenly Master's Mansion must donate 8 taels of silver. To rebuild Chongzhen Temple and rebuild Ziyang Academy!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yingjing almost fainted.

What's the point of letting his Zhang family be responsible for paying the money to repair the house for Zaoge Mountain?

Zaoge Mountain is next to Zhangshu Town. Zhangshu Town can become the capital of southern medicine, and the Taoist priests of Zaoge Mountain are the founders.Ge Xuan and Ge Hong planted medicines and practiced medicine in Zaoge Mountain. Zaoge Mountain not only has many Taoist scriptures, but also many medical books. Taoists practice "medicine".

It is a pity that during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, the Zaoge Mountain Taoist Temple was burned down.

The Taoist priest Liu Kaihua tried to restore it, but his financial resources were limited, so he only restored a small part.The Liu Xianwei in front of him is Liu Kaihua's nephew. He took Taoist priests down the mountain to practice medicine all the year round, and all the money he earned was used to rebuild the Taoist temple.

As for Ziyang Academy, namely Zaoge Mountain Moral Palace, it was the place where Zhu Xi gave lectures.

Zhao Han not only wants to rebuild Zaoge Mountain Chongzhen Temple, but also rebuild Ziyang Academy.To be precise, it is the "Ziyang Medical College", which hires famous doctors to give lectures, so that Taoists can learn from it, and let laymen who are interested in practicing medicine also learn.

Zhao Han took out the latest edition of "Datong Collection", which added two articles to the old edition.He said to the monks and Taoists: "In the temples, monks and Taoists, in addition to visiting the Buddha and practicing the Tao, you should also learn the thought of Datong. If you have the heart, you can also integrate the thought of Datong with Buddhist and Taoist classics, and warn disciples that they should help the world. Save the people."

Immediately, guards came in and distributed a copy of "Da Tong Ji" to each of these monks and Taoists from all over Jiangxi.

All the monks said, and immediately proclaimed the Buddha's name and Tianzun.

"You all come with me." Zhao Han stood up and said.

The monks followed Zhao Han and went to the military camp outside the city, and were dumbfounded by the scene.

I saw hundreds of monks and Taoists on the school grounds, not only monks and Taoist priests, but also nuns and Taoist nuns.They are all illegal monks who have been cleaned up, and the young and smart ones are selected to be trained and transferred to be battlefield doctors, mainly learning first aid and trauma management.

Liu Xianwei stroked his beard and smiled. These people were taught by him. He has been training for a year, and he also took them to the folks to practice medicine for three months.

Although it is not enough to be a doctor, it is definitely enough to deal with trauma and give first aid to the injured.

These illegal monks still wear monk uniforms and Taoist uniforms, but each has a gourd logo embroidered on their chests.They also each carry a medicine box, which also has a gourd logo.

Zhao Han smiled and said to the monks and Taoists: "The monks are merciful. Healing the sick and saving lives is also compassionate. Zaoge Mountain Ziyang Academy opens its doors to all monks. Even nuns can go to study medicine. I hope that you can practice medicine while reciting scriptures. , and can actually do something. Even Zen Buddhism, entering the world to save people is also a way of practice. Zen Master Jingyan, is this the truth?"

"Amitabha, everything in the world is practice, and the words of the chief town are deeply Buddhist. Qingyuan Temple will select ten monks to study medicine at Ziyang Academy in Zaoge Mountain." Zen Master Jingyan is the new abbot of Qingyuan Temple, Qingyuan The temple is right under Zhao Han's nose, and it has been tidied up.

The abbot of Donglin Temple also said: "The temple will send [-] monks to study medicine at Ziyang Academy in Zaoge Mountain."

The rest of the monks expressed their opinions one after another. Even the Tianshi Mansion had to be selected and sent, and the first batch of medical students from Ziyang Academy were there.As for the monks and monks going down the mountain for free consultations, I will talk about it slowly in the future, anyway, these monks can't let these monks have nothing to do.

Many of the "medical soldiers" in front of us are women who have signed up for themselves. There are about a hundred of them. They are currently mainly working as field nurses.

Moreover, all medical soldiers can take up arms to fight at critical moments, and they also need to undergo military training.

Zhang Yingjing returned to the temporary residence, sighed, and told his son everything.

Zhang Hongren said: "The arm cannot twist the thigh. For the current plan, only what he says, the Tianshi Mansion will do. The child will go to study "Mathematics" and "Geometry" tomorrow, and then go to Zaoge Mountain to study medicine after free time. "

"That's the only way to go." Zhang Yingjing's heart was ashamed, and he didn't want to make trouble anymore, only wishing to return to Tianshi Mansion as soon as possible to retire.

……

Nanchang Prefecture.

"My lord, the governor summoned me for a meeting." The servant knocked on the door and said.

"Prepare the sedan chair." Zhang Bingwen said.

In three months, Zhang Bingwen has learned "Analytic Geometry".Apart from this novelty, most of the other mathematics knowledge is what he has learned before.
