Li Shimin looked at the group of bald donkeys angrily and said angrily: "Two hundred Xuanjia troops will take all these bald donkeys to the Ministry of Punishment and put them on death row. Li Daozong, give me a good trial. I want to know the intentions of these bald donkeys." "Why?"
"I obey," Li Daozong immediately turned over and bowed his hands respectfully.
"Li Junxian, listen to the order!" Li Shimin said again,
"The last general is here." Li Junxian immediately performed a military salute.
"You lead the three hundred Xuanjia troops, these women, and the children in their arms to the Chang'an County Magistrate's Office to report, and ask the families of the missing children to come and claim them quickly, do you understand?" At the same time? Li Shimin also said kindly to the mothers-in-law: "On behalf of the families of these children, I would like to thank you for sending them to Chang'an County Government." Li Shimin also knew about these missing children, and the family must be worried. of.
"I obey the order." At the same time, the women were thinking: "Ah, ah, your Majesty is so gentle. If I were dozens of years younger, I would have to attack your Majesty."
Li Jun Xian and a group of Xuanjia troops escorted the group of female relatives back to Chang'an City.
At this moment, Zheng Zhengjin checked the little girl in his arms. It should be that she got caught in the rain when it rained last night, and then she caught a cold and her body felt a little hot. Zheng Zhengjin gave her medicine, and she obediently lay in Zheng Zhengjin's arms and fell asleep deeply.
Zheng Zhengjin came to Li Shimin with a child in his arms. Li Shimin asked: "What, you have a child here?"
"I told General Li how to deal with this matter. Chang'an County Magistrate, this little The child has a slight fever due to the cold. She needs to be well taken care of first. If her parents go to Chang'an County to report the case, the county magistrate will tell her that she is in my house." Zheng Zhengjin said with a smile, while squeezing the little one's flesh. Huhu's little hands feel very comfortable.
"Cheng Chumo, gather the Xuanjia Army. Return to Chang'an." Li Shimin wanted to go back.
But Zheng Zhengjin rolled his eyes and said: "Your Majesty, do you want money? Do you want food?"
Li Shimin's eyes widened and asked: "Are you going to give it to me? "
Zheng Zhengjin said speechlessly to Li Shimin: "Haha, Your Majesty. , you don’t know how rich this little Fahua Temple is. Even the food is enough to feed 10,000 troops for a year. Why don’t you just let them rot there?”
“So much? Food? "Li Shimin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was an unexpected surprise.
"You can arrange for the grain to be moved back to the treasury. After all, the treasury is not very rich now. As for the tens of thousands of taels of gold, if you don't want it, I will take it away." Zheng Zhengjin said with a smile.
"Nonsense, how could I not want it? Is there really tens of thousands taels? Gold?" Li Shimin was very surprised. Tens of thousands taels of gold, what is the concept? If it were exchanged for copper coins, it would be too much. It can be piled up into a mountain.
"What did I lie to you for? Let's go, I'll take you to see it!" Zheng Zhengjin held the child in his arms, and then rolled his eyes at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin didn't mind either. He got off his horse and behind him, Cheng Chumo and Su Dingfang followed.
He arrived at the main hall of Fahua Temple and walked in along the entrance of the cave. The situation in the underground palace was revealed. , the neatly stacked boxes over there are full of gold that can blind people and dogs.
"Your Majesty, do you dislike this much gold?" Zheng Zhengjin teased. "I hate this shit. The more you get, the more I like it." Li Shimin was thinking at this moment that so much money could be worth nearly a year's tax revenue of the Tang Dynasty. This is still a small temple. Damn, If I attack a few more temples, wouldn't it be a big gain for me?
As I thought about it, I felt a little inexplicably excited.
"How on earth do these bald donkeys have so much money?" Li Shimin was so curious. After all, it was so much money.
“The temple collects sesame oil money from those who come to pray, which is not a small amount. For example, many dignitaries, such as many family members, worship Buddhism very much. Therefore, they are extremely generous. , but this time at Fahua Temple, I feel They were probably planning to take away the money and the children, but I discovered it in advance and broke their plot. Moreover, Your Majesty, I feel that the laws of the Tang Dynasty are too lenient for Buddhism." Zheng Zhengjin. I was very depressed about Buddhism during the Tang Dynasty.
"How do you say it?" Li Shimin asked.
“Buddhist monks are not required to pay taxes according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty. This is not good. The jobs of these bald donkeys should be kicked out. They appear to be sanctimonious on the surface, but in fact they are doing the deeds of animals. That’s it. The group of bald donkeys in Fahua Temple today deserve to die, and the ghosts of those women in the back mountain are still alive." Zheng Zhengjin actually wanted to say that Buddhism was of no help to the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin was silent and said: "It is estimated that there will be another quarrel in the court tomorrow about this matter."
Zheng Zhengjin shrugged helplessly, and then smiled, no Speaking, in fact, if Zheng Zhengjin said it, then just drive these bald donkeys out of the Tang Dynasty. But the little guy in his arms slept very soundly.
Li Shimin asked: "Son-in-law, do you think it is better for the money here to be placed in my private treasury or the national treasury?"
Zheng Zhengjin was left speechless by Li Shimin, and said: "You can think about this yourself. Anyway, if you put this money in your private treasury, I think with Old Man Wei's style, you will definitely be so angry at the court that you will not be able to step down. "
Li Shimin immediately and decisively said: "Cheng Chumo, listen to my instructions and give half of all the money here. Some of it was transported to the treasury and handed over to Dai Wei, the new Minister of Household Affairs, to keep records. The other half was transported to my private treasury.
Su Dingfang, according to my instructions, also took all the food here. Transport it to the treasury, okay, you two can do it."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Cheng Chumo and Su Dingfang left after saying that.
Li Shimin looked at the grain and the gold and silver, his eyes glowing with green light.
After a while, Zheng Zhengjin and Li Shimin climbed to the ground and walked out of the gate of Fahua Temple.
Li Shimin asked curiously: "How did you know that there were children they abducted and trafficked here?"
Zheng Zhengjin said: "Yesterday, my family, Youwei, Liwan, and Taro went out, and the one named Hui The empty bald donkey actually said to my Youwei, she I have a fate with Buddhism, and I have a fate with his grandmother’s legs. I came here to investigate last night, so I know it.”
“If this bald donkey knows this reason and causes them to be punished, I’m afraid. You have to vomit a few mouthfuls of blood," Li Shimin said with a smile.
“These bald donkeys deserve to die. Look, they all attacked such a cute child. Now the child is still sick. If we hadn’t rescued him in time, the child would have been in trouble. ." Zheng Zhengjin touched the little fleshy hand of the child in his arms with pity.
