    As expected, Zhao Ran found out about this matter. Then he thought about it. With Ye Yunxuan coming forward, this matter must not be hidden - but there is really no need to hide anything.

    Zhao Ran leaned back in his chair, took a deep breath, and seemed to be immersed in some kind of memory.  Palace Master Cui, Lin Gaogong and Xu Fangzhu looked at each other with excitement in their eyes. Judging from Zhao Ran's performance, this issue should be a breakthrough!

    Lin Gaogong tapped his fingers on the table and urged: "Abbot Zhao, we understand this matter very clearly. Don't have any illusions. Just tell us what it is."

    Palace Master Cui smiled and said: "Junior Brother Zhao, the main responsibility is definitely not on you. As long as you actively cooperate, we will definitely strive for the best results for you"

    Zhao Ran sighed, shook his head and said: "Senior Brother Cui, Lin Gaogong, Xu Fangzhu, if you had been to Lizhou, if you really understood the truth of the matter, if you still had compassion in your hearts, you would never ask this question."

    Lin Gaogong¡¯s face was a bit ugly: ¡°Abbot Zhao, what do you mean by this? The facts are very clear, and we still have witnesses. Do you want to deny it?¡±

    Zhao Ran said: "No, you don't know at all! You don't know how poor the people in Lizhou are! You don't know that the people there can only eat one meal a day! You don't know that the children there don't even have a pair of pants! You don't know how poor the people are in Lizhou!  I don¡¯t know that in order to save a meal for their children, the old people there often choose to go to the old forest and starve themselves to death! You don¡¯t know this!¡±

    Speaking of excitement, Zhao Ran stood up and walked around the room, saying as he walked: "Preaching is not about sitting in a clean and comfortable Taoist temple and gesticulating. It is not about giving orders to the words on official documents, let alone taking pictures.  Just come up with whatever comes to your mind! Only by going down to the lowest level and seeing with your own eyes what kind of house the people live in, what kind of food they eat, and what kind of clothes they wear can you truly understand their difficulties! We  These preachers in the Ten Directions Jungle can only worry about the people's worries, think about the people's thoughts, and care about the people all the time. After they resign, they will not be scolded by the people on their backs. Do you understand?"

    Lin Gaogong said: "Abbot Zhao, what do you say have to do with our problem? Don't talk about it, just think about it!"

    Zhao Ran turned around and pointed at Lin Gaogong and said angrily: "What does it matter if I tell you now! When I was at Ye Xueguan, I witnessed with my own eyes the hardships faced by my colleagues in Lizhou. For every meal they had, they put everything in the bowl  Every grain of rice was eaten cleanly, every bit of oil was added to every last drop, and every bone was smashed before giving up! Each of them wore Taoist robes with no less than a dozen marks.  Patch! When they went to Ye Xueguan, they brought several carts of mountain goods with them. I asked them if they were tired from carrying so many things along the way. Do you know what they answered me? "

    Seeing that Lin Gaogong didn't answer, he continued to ask Palace Master Cui and Master Xu: "Do you know how they answered? I don't know. Let me tell you, they relied on selling these mountain products along the way to Ye Xueguan!"

    "Can you imagine the poverty of the people in Lizhou? In such a barren place and in such difficult conditions, the fellow Taoists in Lizhou have made the most of their poverty, making the people's admiration for the Taoist sect always flourish! However, the rule of saints also  You have to be strong! If the Taoist sect cannot make the people of Lizhou live a good life, with enough food and warm clothes, then when the people are no longer afraid of the power, it will be very powerful!"

    "I can tell the three of you without any secret that the money given by Junshan Temple was not 3,000 taels of silver, but 3,680 taels! These silvers were not given to the Zheng Supervisory Academy of Lizhou, nor to the Lu of Ya'an.  The prison hospital did not give it to Lan Miao Zhu in Shuihe Village. The money was provided by Junshan Temple to support Shuihe Temple, and was used to open up thousands of acres of medicinal fields in Shuihe area! These medicinal fields are enough to feed more than 2,000 people in Shuihe.  The cornerstone of warm clothing is the starting point for tens of thousands of people in Ya'an to move towards a new life, and the hope for the people of Lizhou to get rid of poverty!"

    "Those who see themselves are not clear, and those who are true are not clear! If the three of you have prejudices in your mind, you will be easily deceived! You can send people to Lizhou, Ya'an, and Shuihe to confirm what I said and see if there is any  Not one word is false. If anyone insists on forcing Junshan Temple to provide support to Shuihe Temple to using money to buy votes, it will cut off the livelihood of more than 2,000 people in Shuihe area, and will destroy the people of Ya'an and even the entire Lizhou area.  His hope is that he has ulterior motives, and he is a sinner of the Ming Dynasty, a sinner of Taoism, and a sinner of history!"

    Faced with Zhao Ran¡¯s righteous words, the trio looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.

    After a long while, Lin Gaogong said: "Of course, um, of course we will send someone to find out more about it"

    Zhao Ran sat back on the chair, nodded his head and said word by word: "I'm waiting! I'm waiting for you to investigate and verify. At the same time, II am also waiting for you to give me an explanation as to who is behind the scenes, disregarding the life and death of the people of Lizhou, and making false accusations to achieve his ulterior motives!  "

    Palace Master Cui coughed dryly and said: "Let's not talk about this issue for now. Let's continue with the following questions. These questions all reflect the Du Teng Society. We need to ask the relevant personnel to understand the truth."

    "Please tell me, as I said before, I will definitely cooperate with you if I know anything."

    ¡°Perhaps affected by Zhao Ran¡¯s impassioned speech just now, the next few questions from the talking trio were all asked feebly, and were full of routine.

    "Someone has come forward, saying that Du Teng will collude with Xixia, set up a caravan, and conduct border trade without authorization. Junior Brother Zhao, do you know about this?"

    "I don't know this. After returning to Guyang from Ye Xueguan, I have never had any contact with the Du Teng Society. The missionary affairs in the Songfan area are not something I can interfere with at my level."

    "Someone came forward and said that Du Teng was unfair in handling Tibetan affairs. Does Junior Brother Zhao know?"

    Zhao Ran shook his head: "As I said just now, I have no right to intervene in this matter, and I don't care about it, so I don't know. But I want to be fair. Is it also a problem to deal with the affairs of the Fanbu unfairly? The Fanbu is a naturalized person.  People, the situation in each department is extremely complicated. There are relatives and strangers, good and evil, some who are committed to the Ming Dynasty, some who are attached to Xixia, some who are honest and stubborn, and some who are stubborn. When formulating strategies, it varies from person to person. Isn't this correct?  Is there a way to deal with it? If this is also a problem, then no one will dare to go to Songfan in the future."

    At first, Palace Master Cui didn¡¯t think there was anything wrong with this issue. After hearing Zhao Ran¡¯s ¡°just words¡±, he couldn¡¯t help but curse in his heart. What kind of crime is this?  It's simply out of the question. Isn't it embarrassing to have to verify this kind of issue?

    Afterwards, Palace Master Cui showed even more absent-mindedness when he asked the question: "Someone came forward and said that Du Teng would accept heavy bribes from the Tibetan tribe. Have you heard about this?"

    Zhao Ran said helplessly: "Palace Master Cui, how can I hear this? It's better not to ask about this kind of thing easily. It is very inappropriate for a Taoist at the level of Sandu to ask others for confirmation of this kind of question.  If there is no evidence, this is tantamount to attacking the prestige of Du Jian Yuan for no reason. How can he hold sermons in Songfan in the future?"

    The conversation ended here. The fifth question that Zhao Ran had prepared in advance - that Du Teng would sell Taoist positions in Tianhe Palace, Palace Master Cui did not mention it again at all.

    He hurriedly sorted out the conversation record and gave it to Zhao Ran to read on the spot. After correcting a few errors and omissions, Zhao Ran signed and fingerprinted the record.
