Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1671 Building the Great Mercy Temple
There was a flutter of chaos in the political affairs hall, and it was not until Chu Suiliang was carried out for medical treatment that he calmed down.

The eyes of the big guys looking at Fang Jun are different, but the meanings are roughly the same - this stick is too wicked...

Fang Jun has a relaxed expression, no matter how much you slander, as long as His Majesty Li Er is not annoyed, what can you do to me?He had been secretly looking at His Majesty Li Er. Although the emperor was in low spirits today, the silence just now was enough for Fang Jun to feel a deeper meaning.

In front of all the princes, His Majesty Li Er let him go, obviously not wanting to lose his face, or in other words, not wanting to suppress the face of the Ministry of War...

Seeing that His Majesty Li Er was still hesitating about whether to allow the Ministry of War to hold military power and be directly responsible to the emperor, he saw the benefits, but also worried that the Ministry of War had too much power and responsibility to control it.

This is a matter of course. As an emperor, the most important thing is to maintain the balance of the court. It is absolutely unacceptable for a family to dominate, and spring is when a hundred flowers bloom.

What's more, how can the Guanlong Group headed by Changsun Wuji and the Jiangnan gentry headed by Xiao Yu watch the Ministry of War seize military power and eliminate their influence in the army?

This is an arduous struggle that can only be achieved by outsmarting, and it cannot be achieved overnight...

Fang Jun was not in a hurry.

It's just that these guys want to deny his overseas expansion plan, this is absolutely unbearable!

Now is the best time, with the backing of a powerful Tang Dynasty, an enlightened and ambitious emperor, a relaxed political environment, and a powerful army that is invincible across the world, it is time to ride the wind and waves to accelerate the spread of Han culture all over the world , making Datang's influence permeate to all surrounding countries and nations.

Compared with the conquest of culture, the occupation of land is simply outdated...

……

After a while of commotion, the situation of Changsun Wuji and others uniting against Fang Jun naturally loosened. Moreover, with Li Ji supporting Fang Jun and the emperor's attitude was vague, everyone didn't know what to do.

Could it be that the emperor also agreed with the Ministry of War to control military power?

This is incredible...

His Majesty Li Er looked around at everyone, and said: "Let's let it go today, and discuss it slowly in the future. Anyway, Annan's rebellion has been quelled, and Lin Yiguo is also under control. There is no need to rush. I still have something to do, so I won't leave you for lunch." .”

After saying that, he got up and walked out the door, and all the officials in the hall naturally got up one after another to send the emperor off respectfully.

His Majesty Li Er walked to the door, stood still, looked back at Fang Jun and said, "Fang Jun, follow me, I have something to do for you."

Fang Jun hurriedly said: "Here."

He trotted over, bowed slightly, and followed His Majesty Li Er out of the door.

As soon as the emperor left, the atmosphere in the political affairs hall suddenly relaxed. Although everyone had different positions, it was mostly just political disagreements.

Cen Wenwen stood up and greeted Ma Zhou, "The house minister will be sick at home later, so I'll go to visit you, can you go with me?"

Ma Zhou replied: "That's exactly what I mean, but all the gifts I have prepared are at home, and I need to go home to get them first, otherwise I will be impolite if my hands are empty."

Cen Wenwen nodded: "It's no problem, just go around your house first."

He could visit Fang Xuanling empty-handed, but Ma Zhou could not.Although Ma Zhou is now an important minister in the court, and is even more trusted by His Majesty Li Er, he is very different in seniority after all. He and Fang Jun have a deep friendship, and they can be regarded as nephews.

Cen Wenwen went empty-handed, that would be rough and casual, Ma Zhou would be disrespectful if empty-handed, although Fang Xuanling might not care...

The two left hand in hand, Changsun Wuji with a gloomy face, left alone with his hands behind his back, ignoring anyone.

He is now in a very awkward situation. Although the relationship with His Majesty has gradually eased, there was a rift at the beginning. The so-called broken mirror is hard to fix. Once some things are broken, it is difficult to restore the original situation.Generally speaking, he came to Zhengshitang just to put on a show, and he would basically not speak unless he was involved in a military power struggle.

There are too many officials of the Guanlong Group shouting for their own interests, why should he show his face?
Yushi Zhongcheng Liu Jie saw that everyone was gradually dispersing, rolled his eyes, and said to Li Ji with a smile: "I heard that the capital has recently opened a restaurant, and there are enchanting and beautiful orchids from the Western Regions in the store. If you don't want to be an official, please Would the Englishman have a drink?"

Li Ji said: "Oh, I'm sorry, there are still many urgent matters to be dealt with in this department. It is related to the great plan of the Eastern Expedition, and there is really no delay. Brother Liu's kindness, I accept it."

After saying that, he got up and walked away, leaving old Liu Ji blushing, embarrassed to death...

*****
His Majesty Li Er didn't say a word, he walked in front of the hall, went out of the political affairs hall, returned to the bedroom, changed into a normal suit, and went straight to the gate of the palace. Li Junxian had long been waiting with a team of "Hundred Horsemen" here.

Fang Jun followed suit and did not dare to ask...

His Majesty Li Er got on his horse and rode the horse towards the south. Fang Jun winked at Li Junxian and asked where he was going?Li Junxian turned a blind eye, ordered someone to bring a healthy horse, and handed the reins to Fang Jun. Fang Jun had no choice but to get on the horse. A group of people caught up with the emperor, and several people ran ahead, surrounded by His Majesty Li Er along the road. Drive south along Suzaku Street.

Pedestrians on the road gave way one after another, and after a while, a group of people came to Jinchangfang.

After entering Fangmen and walking a short distance, I saw a temple gate standing at the end of the street, with three big characters "Wulou Temple" written on the plaque...

He got off his horse and handed the reins to the novice in front of the door. His Majesty Li Er walked slowly into the temple with his hands behind his back.

The ancient trees in the temple are towering, and the fallen leaves are rustling.

Along a bluestone-paved road, a group of people came to a cross courtyard on the left side of the Daxiong Hall.This cross courtyard occupies a large area, and there is a seven-story wooden tower standing in the courtyard, surrounded by ancient trees, which is exquisite and elegant.

Before arriving at the Demu Pagoda, Li Junxian and others guarded the door, and His Majesty Li Er walked in with Fang Junxin.

There is a lot of space in the tower, although there are windows around, but the light is not very good, there are many people in the tower at the moment, and all kinds of papers are scattered on several tables, in a mess.

Fang Jun was a little dazed, what is this for?
Seeing His Majesty Li Er coming in, everyone stopped what they were doing, stood up and bowed in unison. Fang Jun suddenly saw Prince Li Chengqian, King Wu Li Ke, Li Yifu who had just been transferred to Chang'an Order, and even Taishi Ling Li Chunfeng...

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand, ordered everyone to sit flat, and sat down on the main seat. He ignored Fang Jun, looked at Li Chunfeng directly and asked, "Aiqing's measurement is in danger, I don't know what the result will be?"

Li Chunfeng said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this Wulou Temple was built in the former Sui Dynasty. Eaves and valleys, repairing forests to hide the sky, Cui Weixun Cen... On the left side of it, there are source springs and pools, embroidered gardens, rain falls from the canals, clouds are flourishing, mulberry, hemp and crops cover the fields, and the orchard is fragrant. On the edge of the forest...below it, the Qujiang River is lingering, the Yellow Canal and the Longshouhui embankment converge, and the hibiscus and apricot gardens seem to be in Yan...on the right, there are thousands of pheasants on the high cliffs, thousands of shops gather, and the roads are closed. Shaoyao, follow the opening and closing of Yin and Yang, the rangers of the seven counties cover three broad roads, and the five capitals fill the twelve gates. The world of mortals is bounded together, and the houses are connected..."

Eloquent and eloquent, in fact, Fang Jun summed it up in two sentences-this is a place where tigers dominate and dragons coil, and the shape is superior.

However, he also understands that Li Chunfeng, as Taishi Ling, is one of the two most accomplished Fengshui practitioners in the world today, so he should take this opportunity to show His Majesty Li Er what he has learned in his chest, not to mention that the hype is not clear. , How to show your talent and learning status?
Fang Jun felt a little emotional. It seems that no matter ancient or modern, some professions are born with only one mouth. Whenever he fools you, he will have a successful career and a lot of money...

After Li Chunfeng finished speaking, His Majesty Li Er nodded and said: "The crown prince is grateful for Empress Wende's early abandonment of Wanfang, and he only wants to repay Haotian and pursue blessings. He wants to build a Buddhist temple so that Empress Wende can accumulate meritorious deeds. I want to use this temple Expansion, Aiqing's Fengshui skills are the best in the world, we should cooperate with the Ministry of Industry and do our best."

Li Chunfeng quickly agreed: "Empress Wende's mother is respected by the world, and she is a model for the world. I have the honor to participate in it, so how dare I not do my best?"

Prince Li Chengqian on one side took two steps forward, bowed to Li Chunfeng and said sincerely, "Thank you, Taishi Li, for helping me."

Looking at Fengshui is the top priority when building a house these years. His Royal Highness built a temple to pray for Empress Wende. This Fengshui master is naturally the top priority.

It's just that Fang Jun is a little funny. Is it really appropriate for you to let a Taoist priest preside over the construction of a Buddhist temple?
At the same time, Fang Jun also understood that this is the construction of the Great Mercy Temple.

His first thought was to take the opportunity to buy real estate in Jinchang Fang, wait until the time of building the temple enclosure to knock out a sum of compensation, and become the first demolition household in history...
