Gu Yuanbai's temples swayed together, and he almost scolded the word "presumptuous" now.

What's even more incredible is that he actually heard the meaning of education in Xue Yuan's tone

What shit!

Gu Yuanbai said coldly, "Let go of your hand."

The little emperor's soft flesh was deep in his palm, and it was extremely comfortable to touch through his clothes. Xue Yuan let go of his hand obediently, not forgetting to prove his innocence, pointed to the wasp not far away and said, "Sir, I am afraid that the wasp will sting you."

Gu Yuanbai's expression softened slightly, "This is not an example."

After half an hour, the absurd and lively situation calmed down. The people who were stung by the wasp went to the imperial hospital. Among the guards, Gu Yuanbai originally thought that they were all tall and strong, so there was nothing wrong with being stung, but the one who reacted the most was his loyal and loyal head of the guard.

Gu Yuanbai directly gave the chief guard a holiday to let him rest in peace. When is it good, and when will it be worth it. In this way, the only person who accompanied Gu Yuanbai personally was Xue Yuan, who came through the back door.

But as long as Xue Yuan is obedient, he is extremely useful.

And now, Xue Yuan is really happy to listen to Gu Yuanbai's words.

Gu Yuanbai said he wanted to starve King Qi for three days, then he really starved King Qi for three days. In the past few days in the court, there have been courtiers hinting at Gu Yuanbai, implicitly asking how King Qi is now.

Among them, the one who was most anxious and had the most patience not to ask questions was naturally the Imperial Censor Taichung.

In the Censor's Desk, one radish is one pit, and those who want to enter must also pay great attention to their background and experience.

The longer you stay in it, the more people participate, and the more clear you are. The Censor Terrace is like a bottomless pool of muddy water. On the surface, the waves are calm, but in fact, the mud is stirred up inside.

This is still the central supervision agency of the country, but what is the use of a supervision agency that Gu Yuanbai can't get involved in

Doctor Censor is getting old and it is time to go to work. Gu Yuanbai originally planned to do something with this, but now, Gu Yuanbai has a better choice.

In the court, some clansmen were worried and frightened by the emperor's cruelty. They spent a lot of money and wanted to ask some officials to ask how King Qi was doing.

This is a very profitable business, just ask, and there is no taboo, why not accept the money

Therefore, when they were in the court, these officials who dared to ask about King Qi only found out that no one in the entire court made a sound except for the middle-level officials who received money like them.

Each eye looked at the nose, nose, and heart, as if they had not heard their words.

Only at this time did these officials with high or low rank and IQs realize that something was wrong.

Why didn't a high-ranking official stand up? With the means of those clansmen, it should be easy to win over high officials, right

Very wrong.

When they asked about King Qi, the sage was still smiling and even said a few words in a warm voice. But after the court, the colleagues who were close to them on weekdays avoided them.

Only they were at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

Sometimes, I am not afraid of being stupid, and I am not afraid of being greedy for money. What I am afraid of is that the political winds are not sensitive. It's fine if you're not sharp, don't talk if you're not sharp!

The youngest son of Prince Qi's mansion has a good reputation since he was a child, and the name of besieging Prince Qi's mansion is to "clean up the rebels". As a result, you foolishly asked the Holy Master in the courtroom whether the removed rebels were okay? When will it be released? How do you eat and how do you sleep? A lot of people are concerned about this rebel army, but also ask Sheng Shang Rende to let the rebel army go earlier

Fuck you, go go, don't implicate us!

In Xuanzheng Hall, Gu Yuanbai welcomed General Cheng and his lieutenants.

The Imperial Army cooperated with the government offices of various clansmen and ministers, and discovered many spies who had been buried by Lu Feng. These spies were both male and female, and some were originally servants in these people's houses, but because of Lu Feng's bribes, they became Lu Feng's people.

These people were excavated one by one, and now, with the "gift", the Imperial Censor Taichung Cheng has it, and only Chu Wei's father, Chu Xun, has returned.

If Chu Xun didn't come back for a day, Gu Yuanbai had to wait calmly.

After the report was over, General Cheng couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, since the matter of King Qi may be related to the Imperial Censor Taichung Cheng, why didn't you order him to be captured?"

Gu Yuanbai said: "I have other plans."

General Cheng couldn't figure it out, but he didn't ask anymore, and chose to fully believe in the Holy One.

Gu Yuanbai was in no hurry, and the Imperial Army followed the emperor in no hurry. He just obeyed the orders of the Sage and put the spies caught in the palace of the princes and the ministers into prison. Some of these people were resentful, some were desperate, and more people cried and cried, kneeling and begging the Sage. Surround them.

But no matter how he begged for mercy, Gu Yuanbai would not soften his heart.

They won't be shipped off now, there's still a chance to live. All in all, the Holy Master said, everything will be discussed when Chu Xun returns.

But King Qi had to cook until Chu Xun came back without eating. In fact, on the second day of starvation, King Qi, who had never been confused and had never encountered such a trial, was too hungry to have the strength.

And his delicious meal, rich in meat and vegetables, was rewarded by Gu Yuanbai to the jailer. The jailer devoured it, and his mouth was full of oil. When King Qi watched him eat it, it was even more uncomfortable.

On the third day, King Qi succumbed to the pain of starvation. With a stern face and a weak voice, he ordered the jailer: "Bring the meal to this king."

Why bother Gu Yuanbai with his own body

Gu Yuanbai is ruthless, and King Qi is also a little timid now, but King Qi, can't the two jailers be comparable

Gu Yuanbai locked them up for such a long time, should he be relieved

King Qi didn't know, but he was afraid of being afraid, and after the fear of which was less, the high-spirited mentality that had been pampered for more than 40 years stood up again.

But the jailer who listened to King Qi's words ignored him at all, and continued to eat meat with a big mouth.

And King Qi has decided to go on a hunger strike, so what can the sons of King Qi do, not to accompany him

King Qi's family of a dozen young men watched the prison guards eat with relish, but felt hungry, and on the third night, finally some people couldn't bear it anymore. They took over the meal that belonged to them, carried King Qi on their backs, hid in the corner and devoured their meal. Even if someone beside them was being tortured, they couldn't stop them from gulps.

With no manners like that, like a pig, several sons of King Qi, who were older than the saint, were eating with tears streaming from their eyes.

Most of them were implicated by their ambitious fathers, who did not dare to complain about the saint at this time, so they thought uncontrollably, why

Why can't King Qi be an Anle King obediently

They don't have big ambitions, they just want to live a life of wealth and honor. But now, the youngest sons of King Qi who are the most favorite and want to be promoted to the throne are staying in the palace to provide food and drink, but they have to suffer prison. Why

The smell of the food came out from the prison, King Qi's weak eyes widened, he moved to the door of the prison with his last strength, and shouted angrily: "What are you all eating?!"

But no one returned to his son.

The resentment was planted in the heart, and the stomach that was hungry for two and a half days was a drum. Because of seeing their father's stupidity, these descendants of King Qi would be more sober and understand what they couldn't do.

If you do, you won't be able to eat.

After Gu Yuanbai dealt with the government affairs, the governor of the capital handed over the news that Chengbao Temple in the suburbs of Beijing had returned a lot of temple fields to the court. information.

Such trivial matters usually do not need to be submitted to the saint, but Chengbao Temple is a royal temple, and the governor is a little uncertain.

When he heard the news, Gu Yuanbai raised his lips and smiled, and very relaxedly and happily threw the memorial on the table, humming an out-of-tune ditty, and said, "The abbot of Chengbao Temple is quite good at seeing people's eyes. ."

Xue Yuan looked at his smiling face from the side, thinking that my mother is starting to wink at you, let alone a monk. Who made you look good.

The saint played with the white suet jade from the table, and his face was dyed a little rosy. His happy expression was extremely infectious, and the people around couldn't help but bend the corners of their mouths.

Gu Yuanbai stood up, walked out from behind the table, loosened his muscles and wrists in the temple, and said, "If those who return to the secular world, let them return to the secular world, I will have a place to use these people right away. As for Terada, let the governor go back."

Immediately someone went down to do something, Gu Yuanbai stretched out his hand, his wide sleeves slowly fell from his forearm, revealing a small piece of white wrist bone and bright yellow undershirt inside. He rubbed his wrist, thinking to himself, Lord Chu, now it's only your excuse.

You're here, and the rest can begin.

Chengbao Temple had just returned Terada to the imperial court, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard that the imperial court had rejected these Teradas.

The abbot of Chengbao Temple's eyes were dizzy, and he barely maintained the bearing of an eminent monk, "Master Fu Yin, why don't you accept these temple fields?"

The governor himself couldn't figure it out, so he smiled and politely invited the abbot of Chengbao Temple out.

This smile frightened the abbot of Chengbao Temple.

Chengbao Temple is a royal temple, and the entire hill is covered with terrestrial fields of Chengbao Temple. These fields do not need to be taxed, and the monks in the temple do not have to pay all kinds of money to the court. This kind of life is too rich. But it was because of this wealth that the abbot felt a shudder when he thought of the three martial arts destroying the Buddha.

The people who traveled to and from Chengbao Temple were all clansmen and dignitaries. Because those clan relatives were frightened by Gu Yuanbai, they frequently came to Chengbao Temple to worship Buddha for peace of mind.

From the mouths of these clan dignitaries, the abbot also knew something.

The emperor can take action against his clan, not to mention these monks? Now that the imperial court does not want his temple fields, the abbot is very worried. After returning to Chengbao Temple that day, he counted the temple fields in the temple again, and made a ruthless decision. Only enough acres for the monks in the temple to eat, and the rest is 90% complete. To the court!

However, the second offering was also rejected by the emperor.

The abbot of Chengbao Temple, who came out of the yamen again, turned from dull to solemn, and when he returned to the temple, he instructed in a deep voice, "Bring a pen and paper."

The little novice brought a pen and paper, the abbot took a deep breath, stabilized his trembling hand, and wrote an article.

At the beginning, he praised the benevolence of the saint, and under the guidance of the Buddha, Chengbao Temple asked the saint to accept the ninety percent of the temple fields offered by Chengbao Temple, so that these temple fields could also contribute to the common people in the world, so as to fulfill the compassion of my Buddha. After writing these words, the abbot's hands trembled even more. He was cruel and continued to write the last paragraph.

Chengbao Temple calls on all the merciful temples in the world to jointly donate the territorial fields in the temples.

The abbot sent this article down the mountain almost tearfully.

He could almost imagine how many people would grit their teeth and curse him to die after this article was seen by the temples in the world.

No matter how much people in the world praise him, how much temples that are passively benefited and oppressed by public opinion hate him.

The only thing that doesn't attract people's attention is probably the court.

When Chengbao Temple sent Terada over for the third time, Gu Yuanbai looked at the letter sent together, opened it, and laughed dumbly.

The person who came to report asked: "Your Majesty, are you still refusing this time?"

"Since ancient times, it has been three words and three resignations," Gu Yuanbai shook his head and laughed, "I didn't plan to do anything, the abbot of Chengbao Temple is in chaos."

Many dynasties used Buddhism to rule the minds of the people. The existence of temples and Buddhism has many advantages. Even if Gu Yuanbai is a redundant monk, it will not be too much. Besides, Chengbao Temple is a royal temple sealed by the first emperor. What about Gu Yuanbai? Will it be unreasonable

It can only be said that the abbot of Chengbao Temple scared himself.

Continue to let people think wildly, this is a bit bad. Gu Yuanbai said: "I talked to the abbot in private and said that I am very satisfied with the articles he wrote."

With these words, even if Terada is returned this time, Chengbao Temple must be able to calm down.

Compared with the hundred thousand acres of temple fields, Gu Yuanbai is now more concerned about the white cotton issue.

A few days ago, Kong Yilin had donated cotton seeds. Gu Yuanbai had never planted such a thing, so he transferred Kong Yilin from the Hanlin Academy to study the small seeds together with officials from the Ministry of Works.

I vaguely remember that cotton seems to be planted in March and April, but Gu Yuanbai doesn't know the specifics. Although it is a bit late now, it is possible to catch up.

If cotton can really be planted this year, people's livelihood and military, how many lives can be saved with this thing.

Gu Yuanbai thought of God for a while, Tian Fusheng added tea to the cup, and said, "Sir, the people from the stable just now came and said that Hongyun had kicked another person."

Gu Yuanbai came back to his senses and smiled bitterly when he heard this: "This thing entered the palace to consume me."

"Go and see it."

The group went to the stables. In the stable, Gu Yuanbai saw the little mouse holding the fruit and nibbling on the side. He was amused, but Xue Yuan really brought this little mouse to Hongyun to play with.

It's just that Hongyun doesn't seem to be interested in mice.

The sweaty horse was taken care of very well, but it didn't want to be put on a harness and only had a rein on its body. As soon as Gu Yuanbaifu walked in, the slightly human horse roared at him.

The red hair was bright, Gu Yuanbai was fascinated, he turned around and looked at Xue Yuan: "Take me on a horse."

Xue Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty, are you healed?"

Gu Yuanbai: "Just listen to me."

Xue Yuan just listened to him. He pulled out the horse, and there were no pedals, so Gu Yuanbai couldn't easily turn over. The palace attendant beside him was going to move the stool, Xue Yuan thought it was troublesome, so he directly hugged the little emperor's waist and put him on the horse.

After Gu Yuanbai got on the horse, Xue Yuan rolled over and sat behind him, holding the reins in his hand, "Your Majesty, is this subject on the horse?"

Gu Yuanbai leaned back and said comfortably, "Let's go."

As soon as the whip was swung, the Maxima ran out like the wind.

Gu Yuanbai's robes and hair fluttered, Xue Yuan looked down at him, the corners of his lips curled, his sharp eyebrows were exposed in the strong wind, after he rode with the little emperor for a while, he slowly slowed down. speed.

"How do you feel about the saint?"

Gu Yuanbai "hiss" and said, "It's cool."

It's just that the body is too weak, and the inner thighs still feel a little hot.

Xue Yuan heard his "neigh" and raised his hand to tighten the horse. Although I thought that the little emperor might be injured, but after I really saw it, I still felt a little bit delicate.

How can you be so tender

Xue Yuan found a shady place with no one, and asked Gu Yuanbai to dismount. Before getting on the horse, Tian Fusheng handed Xue Yuan a bottle of ointment, lest the saint be injured.

"Sir," Xue Yuan knelt down on one knee in front of Gu Yuanbai who was sitting, and separated Gu Yuanbai's legs, "I have to give you some medicine."

Gu Yuanbai looked at him interestingly: "Xuewei, are you trying to give me medicine by yourself?"

Xue Yuan said slowly: "Your Majesty, this minister will take you out to gallop. If you are injured, this minister will naturally feel panic in his heart."

Gu Yuanbai sneered, not believing that he would really be so obedient, so he lifted his robe and said, "Take the medicine."
