Emperor Ming Dynasty

Zhu Yixi was naturally not clear about this.

Although he had thoughts in his heart, he was powerless.

Because Miaoxian, who is rarely jealous, actually started to be jealous, and the three sisters, Hua Nicole and Kress, Huang Jieer, Sun Xuaner, and even Sun Damiana, have been tossing and tossing repeatedly in the past few days.

Good guy, he almost lost his desire directly.

In this way, he almost forgot in his mind.

After finally finding some time, I went to Jinan to visit the springs with sisters Yu'er and Jue'er.

Jinan has long had the reputation of "Jinan's mountains and rivers are the best in Qilu, and its springs are the best in the world." (Yuan Yuqin's "Huibolou Jilue")". Someone once set up a "Famous Spring Stele" in the Jin Dynasty, listing 72 famous springs in Jinan .

The ancients once left behind "lotus flowers on four sides and willows on three sides, one city with mountains and half city with lakes".

Of course, the main reason why Jinan's spring water is so famous is that the north is slightly arid, which is unusual for a city like Jinan with a lot of water.

Things are rare.

With the two little sisters, Zhu Yixi felt a bit sore.

There are many famous springs such as Baotu Spring, Heihu Spring and Pearl Spring, but there are many tourists.

There are quite a few small goods sellers, such as sugar figurines, grasshoppers, snare drums, crickets, and clay figurines.

"Look, Dad, this clay figurine is so beautiful!"

"Sugar man is not as sweet as home!"

Following the two girls, Zhu Yixi took his time and was protected by more than a dozen guards. Of course, there was no danger.

After walking for half a street, there were a few old men setting up chessboards in a corner under the shade of trees. At a glance, they were all remnants of chess.

One big boy at a time, three big boys were cracked. Some literati loved this and formed a circle.

But not far away, there were crowds of people, and the noise kept going.

"Look at them."

After giving an order, Zhu Yixi led a few people to squeeze through, and saw that the open space looked like it was protruding upwards.

It seemed as if something was about to burst out of the ground.

After a while, the protrusion grew several inches high, and after careful identification, it turned out to be the conch on the top of the Buddha's head.

A monk headed by said: "As the saying goes, sincerity leads to spirit, this is the golden Buddha who came to the world, he will respond to every request, and all wishes will come true!"

"Everyone should bow down a lot, don't panic!"

For a moment, everyone knelt down and kowtowed, only Zhu Yixi and the others stood awkwardly.

At this time, a man suddenly took out a handful of copper coins from his pocket and put them in front of the Buddha statue, kowtowing continuously: "Buddha bless you, the little one just wants to marry a beautiful wife and give birth to a big fat baby..."

This time, the gate for investing money was immediately opened.

After all, everyone kowtows, doesn't that mean there is no deduction?
What is sincerity?The more money given is the real sincerity.

Besides, the money was given to the monk, so begging him to say something nice would come true.

For a while, the ground was full of copper coins.

"Amitabha!" The monk smiled slightly and then placed the incense burner.

After a while, the Buddha statue rose another three inches, revealing its entire head.

Therefore, people became enthusiastic and contributed more copper coins than copper yuan.

Zhu Yixi shook his head, this kind of deception is so low-level, but there are many uneducated people who can't stand it.

Moreover, when a person reaches a desperate situation, he will believe everything.

"Go to the police!"

Zhu Yixi whispered to the guards beside him.

Immediately, he wandered around the Buddha statue.

When the Buddha statue rises, there must be bean sprouts exerting force underneath. But today, if it rises so quickly and twice in a row, it will borrow external force.

Someone is holding it underneath.

Walking around nearby, there is a lot of dust near a yard, and there are some broken soil, which should be new soil.

Suddenly, in the corner, he heard a few words.

"These turtles believe in everything, hey, it's my turn to lift tomorrow..."

"We have done so much, how should the altar master reward us?"

"I heard that the Dog Emperor is in Jinan. If we attack him, the Holy Cult will definitely flourish..."

Hearing this, Zhu Yixi didn't understand, this is not a fraud, this is the White Lotus Sect.

Is the White Lotus Sect so rampant?
"go back!"

Zhu Yixi said in a low voice.

Immediately, the father and daughter returned in a hurry.

In Xingyuan, feeling the protection of thousands of troops, he was relieved.

At this time, the love of children, widows and chaste women are completely removed from the brain, and the mind is full of Jiangshan Sheji.

"Heh, the White Lotus Sect has been committed to rebelling for hundreds of years, against the Song Dynasty, against the Yuan Dynasty, against the Ming Dynasty, and against the Qing Dynasty. It's really a shit stick."

The White Lotus Sect came to Zhu Yixi's mind, that is, the group of diehards dressed in white in the movie Once Upon a Time in Huang.

Only destroy and not build.

But certainly, there is always a reason for things to appear.

The White Lotus religion emphasizes the equality of all beings, integrates the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and integrates historical celebrities such as Guan Gong Rulai into it, taking root at the bottom.

In feudal society, exploitation and oppression were inexhaustible, and naturally, the White Lotus Sect had a place to exist.

The peak period, of course, was at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. National oppression and imperial exploitation made the White Lotus Sect flourish. This is how the Red Scarf Army uprising broke out.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect was strictly prohibited.During the Hongwu and Yongle years, there were many armed riots by the White Lotus believers in Sichuan, Hubei, Jiangxi and Lu and other places. Some even claimed the title of emperor, but they were all suppressed.

After the middle of the Ming Dynasty, there were many folk religions, including Jinchan, Wuwei, Longhua, Wukong, Huanyuan, Yuandun, Hongyang, Maitreya, Jingkong, Dacheng, Sanyang, Hunyuan, Wenxiang, Luodao and so on.

The most recent one was the uprising led by Xu Hongru and Wang Haoxian during the Tianqi period.

The well-known Xiaodao Society in the Qing Dynasty, Tianli, Yiguandao, Boxer Society, Red Spear Society, Big Sword Society, and Xiaodao Society were all branches.

Once you have made money, you want status, so you naturally run towards power and choose to rebel.

The key is especially the secret association, which is difficult to clean up in one go.

"Mixed together!"

Zhu Yixi muttered, and then said: "Ask Commander Chu Yu from the Jinyi Guards to come over."

"Yes!"

Soon, Chu Yu came over with a face full of confusion: "I greet Your Majesty!"

"How much do you know about the White Lotus Sect?"

Suddenly hearing the name, Chu Yu's expression changed: "The White Lotus Sect was imprisoned during the reign of Taizu, and now it has been taking root among the people. The most powerful is the Wenxiang Sect, but it is influenced by the Luo Sect, and there are many sects with various names. The factions do not belong to each other.

However, the leader of Wenxiang sect monopolizes the power, the father dies and the son succeeds, and the hierarchy is strict. When the believers join the religion, they hold certain ceremonies, pay money, gather regularly, burn incense and worship, preach scriptures, and teach boxing sticks..."

"Yes, you understand quite deeply."

Zhu Yixi admired, and then asked sternly: "Then why is the White Lotus Sect so powerful?"

"Your Majesty, the Jinyi Guards in various places do not have the power to suppress the White Lotus Sect. They usually report it to the local government to suppress it."

Chu Yu suddenly felt aggrieved, but you said that Jin Yiwei was a spy.

"However, according to the local language, it is said that the opening of the road leads to make it more convenient for them to form associations, and their whereabouts are hard to find..."

Hearing this, Zhu Yixi frowned.In order to better attract young and strong laborers into the factory, he had previously allowed the local people to come and go freely without surveying the roads.

As a result, for local governments, the difficulty of management has increased several times.

After all, in the past, different dialects could be suspected, but now it is all gone, after all, it is different within a prefecture.

This is also its disadvantage.

"I have worked hard, spent all my time on clothes and food, and devoted myself to government affairs. I never thought that the White Lotus Sect is like termites, trying to dig through the dams and cause floods."

Zhu Yixi sighed, "What can Jin Yiwei do about this?"

"I think that the prevalence of the White Lotus Sect is mostly in the places where merchants gather, and it is convenient for them to develop and preach because there are a lot of fish and dragons. Therefore, they sent more people..."

Chu Yu was overjoyed, finally it was my Jin Yiwei's turn to use my skills.

What is scouting for news?No rights at all.

Without the right to act, what can be used to deter officials?What do you use to scare the people?

Who would respect him as the commander of the Imperial Guard?
How do the low-level captains extort money?

Thanks to the White Lotus Sect, my status in the emperor's heart has skyrocketed.

"There are Jinyi Guards all over the place. They are entangled in the local area. As long as a few more people are added, the White Lotus Sect will not be able to escape the law!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yixi fell into thinking.

It is indeed a good idea for Jin Yiwei to specifically arrest the White Lotus Sect.

After all, the White Lotus Sect is widely distributed, more than 20 provinces, and only Jin Yiwei is involved in the general's mansion, so it can deploy power at any time without going beyond the rules.

Only in this way, Jin Yiwei's authority expanded, and the number of people would naturally expand as well.

At that time, it will inevitably happen to raise bandits to respect themselves.

But no matter how you say it, it's better than the flood of White Lotus Sect.

"Can!"

Zhu Yixi said: "Under the Jinyi Guards, there are six gates, and some tyrannical people are selected to specialize in Jinan Jiangyang Avenue Level [-] Bailian and other forbidden religious organizations."

"The number of people is rated at 800. They are both capable of riding and shooting. I allow you to go to the Beijing camp to select people."

"I accept the order and will definitely destroy the White Lotus Sect."

Chu Yu suppressed his joy.

Adding a department will greatly increase the power of Jinyiwei, which is an advantage.

Besides, isn't this the old Tiqi?

What a grand event it was to reorganize Tiqi, Jin Yiwei reinstalled his minions.

"By the way, if you want to truly dismantle the White Lotus Sect, you must bribe its people, and even put secret agents there. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. You have to be prepared for something when you go back."

Zhu Yixi said solemnly: "From this year, the inner court will allocate 20 yuan for the six doors. Don't let me down."

"Go on, prepare well!"

After he left, Zhu Yixi felt a little tired.

After the external troubles were over, internal troubles began to emerge.

Regardless of whether he is a wise king, a sage king or a faint king, what is supposed to come will still come and will not be diverted by human will.

Damn, just wanted to take a good rest, but the world can't spare him, the emperor is really annoying.

At this time, he desperately wanted some comfort, a haven for his soul.

Only Nako is king.

When he thought about it, Qi Qin's appearance appeared in front of his eyes, and his heart felt warm.

The original back pain seemed to disappear in a blink of an eye.

At this time, Feng Houdun, the governor of Shandong, came to ask for an audience.

He came here at this time because riding a tiger is hard to get off.

At Qi Qin's side, everything has been settled, and a lot of time has been calculated, but on the emperor's side, the fire that had just ignited disappeared as soon as he saw it, and he immediately became anxious.

This can't leave an impression in front of the emperor, so what about promotion?
Therefore, he eagerly came to report.

From taxes to population to land, everything is full of praise for his achievements.

Shandong province has jumped to first place in the north, surpassing Henan and Hebei in terms of population and taxation.

Although it has little to do with him as the governor, it is the leader who can't stand him.

Now when he was about to try to guide and test, the emperor suddenly scolded his head and covered his face:

"I heard that the White Lotus Cult in Shandong is developing rapidly. How did you become the governor?"

"No matter how powerful the dam is, it can't stand it and is pierced by termites. I don't know how serious it is secretly..."

After being scolded, Feng Houdun immediately knelt down and confessed his guilt.

After venting his anger, Zhu Yixi said: "Jinyiwei will strictly investigate the cult in Shandong during this period. You must cooperate closely to eliminate all those traitors."

"If you let me know that you are fooling me, I will have good fruit for you."

"I don't dare!" Feng Houdun felt bitter in his heart, good guy, looking at this posture, let alone a promotion, keeping it is a problem.

It seems that Qi Qinshi really has to work hard.

"Speaking of the White Lotus Sect, I heard that the Qin family's cloth worth [-] yuan was robbed by thieves in the mansion. This is what the White Lotus Sect did. I wanted to make persistent efforts, but I never thought that His Majesty would have seen the truth..."

"It's the mother's family of Qi Qin's family!"

Feng Houdun added insult to injury.

The emperor didn't notice it at this time, but felt that the White Lotus Sect was really rampant: "3 yuan, why did the White Lotus Sect collect so much money? It seems that something big has happened recently."

"Could it be that you want to assassinate me!"

Thinking of what he heard in the corner before, Zhu Yixi felt quite irritated.

Regardless of whether it is successful or not, as long as it happens, it will definitely be embarrassing for a Mingjun like him.

"Okay, since it was done by the White Lotus Sect, let's join forces to investigate, and we must use it as a breakthrough!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the latter left with a face full of luck.

Feng Houdun's face was full of bitterness: "What should I do? Where can I find a White Lotus sect to take the blame?"

It was originally a fake robbery, but it turned out to be real.

In this way, he walked back to the mansion with heavy steps.

When Wang He heard this, he was very calm: "White Lotus Sect? In the past, it was just that the people didn't vote for it, and the officials didn't report it. I also heard a little bit about it."

"You, the governor, don't know, but the magistrates below must know. Just ask anyone you trust, and you will definitely find out."

"When the time comes, throw it on him and lure Jin Yiwei over, and you'll be able to get away with it."

As he said that, Wang He said earnestly: "For the current plan, we must send Qi Qinshi there as soon as possible..."

After making a plan, Wang He hurried into Xingyuan, knowing that the emperor was sick and unhappy, he knew the opportunity had come.

He said, the governor knew his fault, and begged him to present a treasure, which was very strange, just outside the line.

"Oh?" Zhu Yixi became interested: "Send it in. I'll see what other specialties Shandong has."

Turn left and turn right, and you come to a Buddhist temple.

"How to get it here?"

When I opened the door, I saw a round body kneeling in front of the Buddha, with a perfect and attractive arc exuding from the back.

There are people who don’t like Zhang Min...
