    "Many people don't understand, what law was changed, what life was changed? Wasn't it good in the past, everyone lived very well and enjoyed themselves happily, and now you have reformed and revolutionized, isn't it just for your emperor's ambition? Offended a famous family  The noble family, offended those sects, isn¡¯t it just to make Yankang¡¯s country bigger? Now it¡¯s causing natural disasters and man-made disasters for years, it¡¯s all your fault, it¡¯s all the reform. This is a fallacy!¡±

    Bazhou Mansion, Emperor Yanfeng and a group of civil and military ministers were walking on the street, looking at the people queuing up in front of the official porridge stalls to receive meals, Emperor Yanfeng walked over and came to a porridge stand, where they were distributing  The congee officer was about to kneel down, when Emperor Yanfeng waved his hand and said, "It's freezing cold, there aren't so many rules. How much is it for one person?"

    "Return to Your Majesty, one adult has a bowl of rice porridge, two steamed buns, and a spoonful of dried vegetables."

    Emperor Yanfeng nodded, let him go down, and served meals to the victims by himself. Behind him were all civil and military officials of the court.  While holding the spoon, Emperor Yanfeng continued: "The people who used to live very well were never ordinary people! Si Nong, tell them how many people can be supported by one mu of fertile land before the reform of the National Teacher."

    The Minister of Agriculture hurriedly said: "Before the reform, one mu of fertile land produced 330 catties of coarse grains per year. But at that time, the fields were all concentrated in the hands of aristocratic families, temples and Taoist temples, and farmers had no land in their hands. Seven or eight farm families  population, 80 mu of land, with food, fruits, trees, vegetables, and medicinal materials. After a year of hard work and two seasons of planting, there is no surplus food in a year, and they can barely eat enough. They can eat one or two meals of meat a month.  To starve to death. Back then, many old people took the initiative to throw themselves into the river or up the mountain in times of disaster, so as not to hurt their families. At that time, there were countless grains and money in aristocratic families, temples, and Taoist temples."

    Emperor Yanfeng said: "Eighty mu of land can support a family of seven or eight people. After a year of hard work growing grain, where did the grain go? Come and tell them again, how many people can one mu of land support after the reform?"

    The Minister of Agriculture continued: "Your Majesty ordered the national teacher to reform the law and take all the land in the world. The family, temples and Taoist temples are not allowed to own land. Ding Nan has 80 mu of land and 20 mu of fertile land. The population has increased several times in recent years.  The land has also grown a lot, and the rules have been changed. Ding Nan has 40 acres of land and 10 acres of fertile land. The national teacher asked warriors and supernatural beings to work in agriculture, and the harvest was guaranteed in drought and flood. It rained in drought and drained water in severe flood. Therefore, one hundred and six  There has been no famine for ten years. Now the yield per mu is 820 catties, and the land tax is two shi, so the farmers don¡¯t think it¡¯s expensive to eat meat.¡±

    "Three hundred and thirty catties, eight hundred and twenty catties."

    Emperor Yanfeng squeezed two steamed buns and put them in the bowls of the hungry people, and took a spoonful of dried vegetables, and said with emotion: "What is a Buddha? This is a Buddha, a living Buddha, a living Buddha, the Buddha of all the people! It's not that you put the name of the Tathagata on your head.  The name of the Taoist Lord, if you say something like chicken soup that soothes the soul, the Buddha is the Taoist Lord! Si Nong, let me ask you again, since the reform of the National Teacher is very good and there is more food, why is there still a famine when a natural disaster breaks out?  "

    Minister Sinog had a troubled expression on his face, hesitantly said: "This"

    "explain!"

    "Yes. In addition to the multiplication of the population, there are also reasons for eating meat and fighting. Food is needed to feed livestock, and animals are needed in the army, training soldiers, and fighting. The most important thing is the transfer of farmland.  Some of the farmlands were bought by family lords and sect temples and became landlords.¡±

    The Minister of Agriculture said: "The food has returned to their hands. The sectarian rebellion last time was because they had money and food in their hands, so they were so bold. And this time the famine should not be so big, it is not because of the fight  After the war, the national treasury was empty, and these aristocratic families and big family sects were unwilling to release food to the temples? The last sectarian rebellion caused too much impact"

    Emperor Yanfeng turned his head, glanced at the officials, and said: "The Taoist temples of the family's big family, used to be high above the sky, sitting in the sky, eating delicacies from mountains and seas, delicacies, talking about romance, talking about Taoism, magical powers, and gods.  Longevity, there are farmers raising them, who is willing to give a hand to these farmers? If the farmers refuse to accept it, they will directly bring disasters and catastrophes! Is this snow disaster strange? Not surprising. In the past, when the sects ruled the country, there were many such snow disasters! But it is not a god  Disasters, disasters from heaven, disasters from sects, to make these common people submit and dare not cause chaos!"

    "The reform of the national teacher, let the sects work for the peasants and merchants, they are not happy, and they don't want to do it. The national teacher reforms again, opens the elementary school and the university, and passes on the skills of these sects to the world. Let the world do it. They  Even more unwilling. Want to rebel, want to kill! Who knows that the ancestors counted down to eight generations ago, all of them were farmers, and none of them were special!"

    "You have also seen and heard clearly. This time I will kill their heads, next time you do like them, I will kill your heads too! The officials I want are not these high-ranking sects, what kind of high-ranking people  What kind of Buddha, the official I want is able to do things in a down-to-earth manner! A scholar, a farmer, a businessman, a scholar must be able to give a job to the farmer, businessman and businessman.; After walking a hundred miles away, Emperor Yanfeng read the Kaihuang Tribulation Sutra, calmed down, looked up at the sky, and remained silent.

    The old Taoist said: "Your Majesty cares about all living beings, so you should know how to do it?"

    Emperor Yanfeng was in a daze, and suddenly said: "When I was young, Yankang Kingdom did not have such a large territory, and the emperor was not so noble. At that time, all the sects and families were still domineering. Once I went abroad with an envoy  Go, visit a place called Yuan Qiguo, which is now Yuanzhou. There is a thunderstorm, the sky is full of dark clouds, covering Yuanqiguo, and the thunder is crackling non-stop, killing an unknown number of cattle and sheep  , and killed an unknown number of people.¡±

    "The emperor of Yuan Qi Kingdom brought all the civil and military officials and knelt down to plead guilty during the thunderstorm, and the people in the country also knelt on the ground, asking God to appease the wrath. The emperor was struck to death in that thunderstorm. I didn't know until later that they  The god in the mouth is not a god, but Lei Yinzong, a sect. It is probably because the harvest is not good, and there are fewer good things to pay tribute to Lei Yinzong, so Lei Yinzong has a catastrophe. It is Lei Yinzong who caused the thunder disaster  Teach Lingbao, Jiuxiao Lei Yinshi. The emperor took the sin on himself, so Lei Yinzong killed him and changed the emperor. At that time, I was thinking"

    He looked at the Taoist master and Tathagata, and said word by word: "I want to overthrow you! Now, I have done it, but what I have done with the national teacher is not enough, so there will be this snowstorm. Isn't it a god?  Turn God is!"

    The Taoist master couldn't help but said: "Don't your majesty care about the common people? Do you want Yankang to turn into a big ruin? You and the national teacher reformed, you and the national teacher defeated those sects and unified such a large territory. The old Taoist did not stop  It¡¯s better than you, right? But if you change the law again, the heavens will be angry and endanger the common people!¡±

    The old Tathagata said: "Think twice, Your Majesty."

    Emperor Yanfeng said: "You have your beliefs, and I have my beliefs."

    The old Tathagata sighed, and said to the Taoist master: "Old fellow Taoist, change the emperor."

    The Taoist master took the Taoist sword, nodded and said: "Forget it, I have already said all the good things, but your majesty is still stubborn, so I have to change the emperor."

    Emperor Yanfeng looked around, and saw old Taoists, old monks, poor masters and others coming from all directions, surrounding them in the center, the number was much more than the eight of them.

    The expressions of Admiral Tiance and the others changed drastically.

    Emperor Yanfeng was stunned, and laughed and said: "Tathagata, Taoist Lord, I thought you would talk about the rules of the world, but I didn't expect you to come to the court to follow the rules."

    Tathagata shook his head and said: "It's a last resort, please forgive me. Daoist, fellow Taoists, let's send His Majesty on the road together." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
