The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas
Chapter 1590: Now the Buddha doesn’t worship the Buddha
Latest website: In the feudal dynasty, the generosity of the king is a rare virtue.
The emperor takes the world’s offerings as his own use. He wants to satisfy his **** for extravagance. The clothes, food, shelter, and transportation are all beautiful. The clothes are the top silk. The food must be fine and extravagant to show the royal style. Housing is the main cost. The beauty of building a palace is not a heaven, but a heaven. When you walk, you will embrace the front and the back, and countless courtiers will follow, and countless human and financial resources will be used.
There are still a large number of people around to take care of, wives, young wives, children and grandchildren, seven aunts and eight aunts, and a large number of civil servants and generals who follow them to fight the world are waiting to be fed. The resources are limited. Given them, how much can be given to the common people. ?
There is more than enough energy but not enough energy!
Yan Changwu was able to take care of both. His two Chinese regimes implemented a strict taxation system. Unlike the poor Ming emperor who could not collect taxes, the tax collectors of the Southeastern China and even Xinming were like tigers and wolves. He also engaged in self-employment-such as tobacco monopoly, and also used the Golden Armed Police Force to engage in gold and silver in the two Chinas, vigorously develop the economy, encourage childbirth and consumption, and realize a virtuous circle of income.
In this way, the regime received a huge amount of silver dollars, which not only met the needs of the people around it, but was also able to divide the world, and the people reaped the benefits.
For example, Southeast Asia is an environment of outlying islands. Unlike Xinming, which faces the sea in the east, high mountains and deserts to the west, Siberia ruled by General Winter to the north, and rainforest densely covered with miasma to the south. There is a tendency to separate.
As Zhu Zhenzhen said, Yan Changwu used Taiwan's wealth to conquer Southeast Asia, and left a large amount of Southeast Asia's wealth to his subjects. To win the hearts of his subjects, there is nothing more effective than generous rewards!
Yan Changwu and Zhu Zhen had a real smile. The two had breakfast and took a break. The palace manager came to report that the convoy was ready, so the couple declared their wish to drive to Linggu Temple.
Linggu Temple is located on the southeast **** of the Zijin Mountain in Nanjing. It was built in the 13th year of the Tianjian in 514 AD. It is now 1656. It has been a thousand years. It was built by Emperor Liang Wu of the Southern Dynasty to commemorate the famous monk Baozhi. Kaishan Abode" was originally named Kaishan Temple.
In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang personally gave the name "Linggu Temple" and named it "the world's first Zen forest", and it was one of the three major Buddhist temples in the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, there are many famous temples in Nanjing, including Qixia Temple, Jiming Temple, Hongjue Temple, Dinglin Temple, etc., all of which are famous temples with a long history, and the incense is very prosperous. However, Linggu Temple has the name of the temple bestowed by Zhu Yuanzhang. Standing out, there is a vague tendency to become the old Zhu's family temple.
The princess Zhu Zhenzhen of Jianguo once went to Linggu Temple for incense. At that time, due to the unstable domestic situation in Xinming and the lack of overseas communication, Yan Changwu sent it back without a word for a long time. As a result, rumors were flying!
Of course it would not be a good thing. Even if Yan Changwu's army is so powerful, Zhu Zhenzhen gave them benefits to his subjects. He still said that Yan Changwu was a big pirate, a traitor in troubled times, and a living Cao Cao, and he wished he was wiped out soon.
Zhu Zhenzhen was upset. After praying to the Buddha in Linggu Temple, she won a lottery at the time of drawing!
She signed this to the public and stated that after Yan Changwu returned to China, she would go to Linggu Temple with him to pay the vow.
Yan Changwu returned victoriously, and on the second day of his return, the couple went to Linggu Temple to offer incense.
Yan Changwu and Zhu Zhenzhen rode in the carriage, naturally unimpeded. It was ten kilometers from the southeast palace of Lion Rock to Dezijin Mountain, and the carriage speed was only one hour.
At the bottom of the mountain, I saw that the trees on the Purple Mountain had bloomed, and the red, purple, white, and green patches were inlaid together, embellishing the entire hillside in a colorful way.
Although Nanjing is very developed, the Zijin Mountain is regal, and without major development, the brown land and green crops in the wilderness are also refreshing in the summer. Between the croplands, the smoke from the cooking smelt the chickens and dogs, and the fireworks in the world made the landscape and scenery more friendly, relaxing, and showing the peace of the Zhu Ming Dynasty.
At the foot of Deshan Mountain, Yan Changwu and Zhu Zhenzhen got out of the carriage and got on the sliding poles to let people carry them up the mountain.
Originally, it is advisable to worship Buddha by walking uphill at the foot of the mountain to show sincerity, but Yan Changwu and his wife are not ordinary people and do not have to follow this rule.
The road has been guarded, but there are people at the foot of the mountain. Obviously, there are many people asking God today, and the temples are indispensable.
Hearing that the Supreme is coming to the incense, the general public in Nanjing will also come to take advantage of the excitement. After a while, Yan Changwu's mind can't help but think of a scene... People holding mobile phones and cameras crackling and snapping photos, it is crowded, adults watch Human heads, children look at their butts, a lot of people, Chinese characteristics!
There are so many people, the great ancestor of the Red Dynasty once said how easy people are!
He was also very interested, admiring the flowers and trees on the roadside and the wilderness behind him. Instead of praying for Buddha, he would rather play.
Arrived at Linggu Temple, it was really a big jungle, the temple architecture was solemn, and the monks who came out to welcome the monks were solemn and magnificent.
Some of the scenery outside the helpless temple is unsightly. There are many vendors, some selling food, and there are open stalls selling incense candles and some so-called consecrated ornaments. These things provide convenience to tourists and are also commercial activities operated by the temple... Sure enough, any religion changes as soon as it arrives in China, and other temples are not much better. If you want to go high, if you have no money, don't even think about it!
Yan Changwu remembers the Golden Temple of the Sikhs in India, where there is a free meal for those who visit the Golden Temple.
It is also good for Chinese temples to stretch their hands, that is, there are very few religious fanatics in China, and there are fewer religious troubles, which is beneficial to the rule of the court.
Seeing Yan Changwu looking around, Zhu Zhenzhen was really afraid that he would be unhappy, and explained: "Someone suggested that this place should be sealed off and not allowed to operate. I said that giving Xiaomin an extra money is not good, so I didn't ban them!"
Yan Changwu nodded and said, "Promoting economic prosperity is one of our fundamental principles!"
Route policy? !
Zhu Zhenzhen smiled and just let him go.
The eminent monks of Linggu Temple, wearing red monk robes, lined up to welcome the arrival of the Supreme.
They said together: "Amitabha!"
Yan Changwu and Zhu Zhenzhen also replied: "Auspicious masters, Amitabha!"
As soon as I entered the gate of the hall, there was a wooden box in the hall, which read: "Donate money to gilded body~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Make good destiny and cultivate the next life."
As soon as Yan Changwu stretched out his hand, a handful of gold coins fell on his palm, and a few of them fell on the ground, making a crisp jingle.
Yan Changwu dropped the gold coin into the wooden box like a coin, "ding ding dong dong dong", and the monk next to him heard loudly and said: "Goodness, goodness."
The monks in the main hall stood on both sides, smelling only the scent but not seeing the incense. This was waiting for Yan Changwu and Zhu Zhenzhen to put incense on their heads. The attendants and monks were busy lighting incense and preparing to add high incense. They were made of sandalwood, and they were so big that they looked like arms.
Yan Changwu naturally didn't need him to do it. He watched everyone's movements, and asked the great monk Shi Lingjue, the abbot of Linggu Temple who was driving with him, "Does the lonely need to bow down?"
There was a deep meaning in this remark, and the whole hall suddenly became silent, and everyone looked at Shi Lingjue, making him like a thorn on his back, cold sweat!
He gritted his teeth and said: "The prince does not have to worship, now the Buddha does not worship the Buddha!"
"Good! Good!" Yan Changwu also took the incense, did not kneel down in front of the Buddha, but bowed in the air!
