Farmer’s Blessed Girl

He couldn't help but look at Zhou Man.

Man Bao immediately lowered his head and stared at his toes.

When the emperor saw it, he was so angry that he was breathing heavily. She was clearly the one who caused it!

"emperor--"

The emperor returned to his senses, and immediately held the hand of the queen mother and said sincerely: "The queen mother can go if she wants, or I will let the prince go? Which Taoist temple did you make your wish?"

The queen mother fell silent when she heard the words, and sighed after a while: "I didn't find out if you didn't ask me, and I didn't make a wish in person, so how can I repay it?"

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this matter had been fooled, but who knew that the queen mother suddenly grabbed his hand and said: "Emperor, Aijia is going to Xuanduguan."

The emperor glared at him and quickly advised, "What is the wish of the mother, it is better to let the prince go on a trip, how can you go in person?"

But the queen mother said with a firm look: "No, Aijia has to go in person. If you are sincere, how can you expect the care of the gods?"

emperor:……

He turned to stare at Zhou Man.

Under his gaze, Zhou Man had to step forward and persuade him, "Niangniang, your body is not suitable for traveling."

However, the queen mother recognized the "sincere heart and spirit" and insisted: "Aijia is going to visit in person."

Even Mingda tried to persuade her, but it was useless, and she didn't know which sentence from Zhou Man irritated her. She had to go there in person to show that she was not obsessed or unbelieving, but both believed and obsessed, and was very pious to gods. .

Man Bao was very sad, and the emperor was even more sad, because at the end, the Queen Mother held his hand and called out "Cat Slave". Tears rolled in her eyes, and the emperor could not say what she refused, so her head froze. It should be hot.

He just responded, and the words seemed to be lingering in his ears, and he regretted it in his heart, but the queen mother nodded happily and said repeatedly: "Aijia knows that cat slaves are the most filial."

Let the emperor even have no chance to go back.

It was already two quarters of an hour when the three of the monarch, ministers and daughters stood at the gate of the palace. The queen mother knew how to put it away when she saw it.

The emperor served the queen mother and rested before leaving with Zhou Man and Mingda.

Standing on the bluestone path at the gate of the palace, Man Bao and Ming Da lowered their heads together.

The emperor stood in front of the two of them, staring at this, then looking at that, not knowing who to blame.

After all, the two children had good intentions from the beginning, Mingda was filial, and Zhou Man was a friend. No matter how effective she was, her heart was also good. It is a very good wish to hope that Mingda and the Queen will live a long and healthy life.

So the emperor took a deep breath, and after putting down his anger, he couldn't help but quietly complained about the queen mother in his heart. Zhou Mandu said that he should believe in gods and Buddhas and not be obsessed with them. How could the queen mother not understand?

Mingda quietly gave Man Bao a wink, made her step back, and then asked, "Father, do you really want the royal grandmother to go to Xuandu Temple?"

"You have no jokes, can I still regret it?"

It's okay, the emperor doesn't want to lose face, and it's enough to face the queen mother a few times. Anyway, the courtiers will definitely stand on the emperor's side this time.

However, the emperor decided to fulfill his promise after weighing it.

After all, the empress dowager just expressed her desire to go, and the emperor did not want the empress dowager to leave with regret.

He thinks this is also filial piety, but the courtiers obviously don't think so, and many ministers have written to express their opposition.

Even Xiao Yuanzheng has a rare letter. From the Queen Mother's pulse case to the current weather problem, in short, she strongly opposes the Queen Mother's travel.

Otherwise, who's to blame if something goes wrong?

The reasons for the courtiers' opposition were more complicated.

In fact, many courtiers have opinions on the superstitious behavior of the queen mother in the past six months, but it is because the queen mother is seriously ill and is dying, and she uses the private rooms of herself and the emperor, so it did not happen.

But now that the Queen Mother was going to drag the sick body out of the palace herself, the backlog of dissatisfaction among the courtiers broke out at once.

Even Tang He and the magistrate Guo of Wannian County next door did not hold back in writing to express their objections.

Everyone generally believes that the emperor has to pay half of the responsibility for this matter. Do you think that you are filial to obey the queen mother?

When the queen mother is not in good health, you should do your duty as a child. Do you think that the queen mother wants the stars and you give them the stars as filial piety?

wrong!

And it was a big mistake, so the courtiers first scolded the emperor for filial piety, and then talked about their suppressed dissatisfaction during this period of time.

Do you think that the superstitious activities carried out by your emperor's family are your own private affairs?

wrong!

Royal selfless affairs, especially those involving such beliefs in gods and Buddhas, as atheists, Wei Zhi, the old Tang adults, etc. not only opposed the queen mother's charity and dojo for temples and Taoist temples, but also opposed the emperor's related activities.

They believe that the emperor in today's predicament must pay a considerable amount of responsibility.

What's good for you, what's good for you is bad for what's below. As soon as your upper and lower lips touch, you will go to Huguo Temple and go to Xuandu Temple to burn incense, but you don't know how many ordinary people turn around and flock to the temple and Taoist temple.

And when the incense of temples and Taoist temples is strong, more problems will inevitably arise.

What should I do if there are not enough staff in temples and Taoist temples?

What should the people do if they feel that it is profitable to be a monk and a Taoist priest and go to become a monk and a Taoist priest?

What should a monk and a Taoist do if they take advantage of the situation to insult the people?

Have you thought about these questions as a royal?

A set of data submitted by the Tang and Guo magistrates made everyone more rational and justified.

In the first half of this year, because the Queen Mother set up the relief shed under Huguo Temple and Xuandu Temple, the crimes and various disputes around Huguo Temple and Xuandu Temple were 60% higher than last year. The county's overall crime figures were also nearly 30 percent higher than last year.

In addition to the impact of the annual drought on this year, this year's crime figures are still ridiculously high.

The magistrate Guo probably didn't think much about it at first, but Tang He had a soft spot for the Ministry of Punishment. After research, he found that this had a certain influence on the obsession with gods and Buddhas that the queen mother had been doing in the past six months, so he took magistrate Guo together. Booked.

The emperor was so badly sprayed in the morning that he finally had to tell the story of Zhou Man's admonition to the queen mother that day, and said that they had already persuaded the queen mother, but the queen mother insisted on doing so. If you have the ability, go and let the queen mother take it back.

As long as the queen mother said she could not go, he would not go immediately.

Courtier: ... Who would dare to face the Queen Mother at this time?

But... Wei Zhi raised his head to look directly at the emperor, and asked with bright eyes: "Your Majesty, what Zhou Man said is not without reason, so does Your Majesty believe in gods and Buddhas without being obsessed, or both believe and be obsessed?"

The emperor felt a little pain in Tianlinggai, and remembered that in previous years, as long as he had a reward for Huguo Temple, Wei Zhibi would write a letter to express his opposition.

He had a chill down his spine, and regretted putting his focus on Zhou Man. He didn't expect that in the end, the focus would still be on him.

Among the hundred officials, Man Bao silently lowered his head and tried to pretend that he did not exist.

see you tomorrow
