Chapter 170 Li An's Ten Treasures
"Lingbao Zhenling Weiyetu", "Taixuan Jinsuo Liuzhuyin", "Sandong Zhunang", "Xinshu Shiyichao", "Xuxiang Shanyelu".
Ou Zanghua stood in front of the third wooden cabinet, looking at the row of books on it, and was quite surprised. Why did this old guy Li An collect so many ancient books on Buddhism and Taoism when he had nothing to do?
He picked up a book at random, opened it and saw that it was "Five Lamps Collection" written by Monk Pu Ji in the Song Dynasty.

Of course, this book is not about the Lantern Festival, but a collection of "opportunity" quotations by famous Zen masters before the end of the Song Dynasty, all of which are compiled without much deletion.

The wisdom of Zen masters is recorded in the form of questions and answers, singing and talking, silence and words, sighs and smiles, etc.

It's a pity that Ou Zanghua doesn't know much about Zen Buddhism. It would be a waste if this book were in his hands.

After putting it back, he picked up another book at random. Ou Zanghua couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "One Sword Immortal Kneels"?
Who is so arrogant?!
Look at the author's name, Longhu Mountain·Zhang Daoling
That’s okay!

Ou Zanghua silently put the book into his sleeve. He wanted to learn from Taoist Zhang's fearless spirit of despising the gods.

Looking at the rolled calligraphy and paintings on the other side, I picked up a piece and opened it. It was the "Chengxintang Paper Collection" by Cai Xiang, one of the four great masters of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Put it back and draw another one, it is "Postscript to Two Letters from the Near Han Dynasty" by Deng Wenyuan, a calligrapher from the Yuan Dynasty.

This person was a good friend of Zhao Mengfu, and was called by Zhao Mengfu as his "feared friend."

In the second year of Dadu, Emperor Chengzong summoned Zhao Mengfu to Dadu to write the "Tripitaka" in gold characters, and allowed him to recommend people who were good at calligraphy to accompany him. Deng Wenyuan was recommended by Zhao Mengfu under such circumstances, and they went to Beijing together. This made Deng Wenyuan's calligraphy famous in the world.

This shows how reliable a reliable friend is!

It is a pity that Deng Wenyuan neglected calligraphy in his later years and his reputation as a calligrapher gradually faded, which also led to the fact that not many of his works have been handed down.

At this time, a Jinyiwei came over and said, "Sir Ou, I found a layer in the fourth cabinet, and there are four long swords in it."

After hearing this, Ou Zanghua walked over and saw that the four swords were of different lengths.

He took out the longest one and pulled out a section. The blade was white and cold. He knew it must be extremely sharp without even cutting it. There was also an inscription of four characters on it: Wind and Moon.

"I understand. You guys go look at something else!" Ou Zanghua smiled and said to the Jinyiwei.

"Yes!" The Jinyiwei responded and turned to register other things.

Then, Ou Zanghua found a secret compartment. He opened it and saw a small box inside.

He opened it and took a look. Inside was a thumb-sized, lotus-shaped, white, hard object. It looked a bit like white marble and gave off a faint rotten smell.

Ou Zanghua didn't know what it was and was too lazy to touch it, so he simply put it back.

A moment later, the four swords were packed into a wooden box and sent onto the carriage together with Tang Qin Duyou.

A team of 100 naval soldiers led by Yue Buqun and Mi Weiyi delivered it to Liu Qing.

At the same time, on the other side of Nanchang Prefecture, Prince Ning Zhu Chenhao finally knew what had happened.

"You mean, Ou Zanghua led the Jinyiwei to raid Li An's house?!"

Zhu Chenhao stood up from his chair and asked in surprise.

"That's exactly what we've learned!" Yang Qing cupped his hands and said, "Our spies saw people wearing flying fish suits entering and leaving the Water Guanyin Pavilion. Hundreds of Poyang Lake naval forces have entered the park, and they seem to be counting supplies."

"Ouch!"

Zhu Chenhao called out, stood up and walked to Liu Fang and asked, "Yangzheng, you were in Li'an's mansion before, you should know what good things he has, right?"

Liu Fang immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness, Li An is greedy for money. He likes to collect valuable things. Except for a few items that he bought at a high price, he will treasure them. All other items are placed randomly. As far as I know, there are only ten things that Li An values ​​the most, which he calls the Ten Treasures."

"Which ten treasures are they?" Zhu Chenhao asked curiously.

"One of them is Tang Qin Duyou, and His Majesty knows her origins."

"The second one is the four swords of wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Li An found a piece of cold iron from overseas and spent a lot of money to ask the head of the Weaponry Bureau to make it." "The third one is the relic of Xue Shanzi. Li An believes that it must contain the secret of becoming a Buddha. He takes it out and holds it in his mouth every few days to practice."

"The fourth is a handwritten copy of 'One Sword Makes the Immortal Kneel' written by Zhang Daoling, the first generation Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu. It is rumored that Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling killed the immortal with this sword."

Zhu Chenhao sneered and said, "Others may not know, but I know what those idiots in Longhu Mountain are up to. What they mean by beheading an immortal is nothing but a way to flatter their ancestors."

"Your Highness is right." Yang Qing, who was standing by, also smiled and said, "The previous Heavenly Master's affairs made the Buddhist family very excited for a long time!"

The two were talking about the bad things of Zhang Yuanji, the 46th generation Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain.
In April of the fifth year of Chenghua, Zhang Liuhuan, a member of the clan of Zhang Tianshi, went to the capital to file a complaint, saying that Tianshi Zhang Yuanji was cruel, greedy, licentious, lawless, usurped tools, and arbitrarily changed the imperial decree in order to intimidate his fellow villagers.

Because the charges were so shocking and Zhang Yuanji was a favorite of Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Xianzong specially sent Xu Ying, the Left Vice-Chief Censor, to verify the case. It turned out that all the charges were confirmed.

The furious Emperor Chenghua issued an edict to have Zhang Yuanji brought to the capital and imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice.

Later, Zhang Yuanji was sentenced to death by slicing by a thousand slices by the Ministry of Justice, but this was rejected by Emperor Chenghua. The Ministry of Justice and Emperor Chenghua argued back and forth for nearly three years.

Finally, Zhang Yuanji was demoted to a commoner, beaten with a hundred sticks, and exiled to Gansu Wei for eternity. He did not return to Jiangxi until the eleventh year of Chenghua.

Interestingly, in “The Biography of the Han Tianshi”, the Tianshi Mansion referred to Zhang Yuanji’s experiences of imprisonment and exile in those years as “traveling abroad”.

With this kind of behavior, it’s no wonder that Da Meng’s most confident man looks down upon her.

Liu Fang did not join in the conversation between the two. He did not dare to criticize someone who had already become a god.

"Yangzheng, please continue!" Zhu Chenhao did not continue complaining, but waved his hand, motioning Liu Fang to continue.

"Yes!" Liu Fang responded and continued.

"."

"The ninth is a gilt-bronze seated Buddha statue, made during the Shaoxing period of the Southern Song Dynasty in the Dali Kingdom."

"The tenth one is the Water Guanyin Pavilion, which is a forest garden built by Li An for his own retirement. It contains a large number of precious woods and flowers, and countless rockery and stone carvings."

"Not bad!" After listening, Zhu Chenhao looked at Yang Qing and said, "This old eunuch may be vulgar, but he does have a good eye."

He thought for a while and felt that Ou Zanghua was at least one of the Nine Minor Ministers, and would be one of the most senior officials in the capital, and he was still so young, so it was worth his respect.

So Zhu Chenhao said, "Jingyou, send an invitation to Ou Zanghua. I will host a banquet at the palace tonight. Please invite him to come over for a chat."

"Yes!"

Yang Qing responded immediately. He also wanted to see what abilities this youngest Minister of the Ministry of Rites in the history of the Ming Dynasty had to deserve such favor from the imperial court.

Zhu Chenhao glanced at Liu Fang again and said, "Yangzheng will also come to the banquet tonight."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Liu Fang was delighted and agreed immediately.

Then, Yang Qing carefully wrote the invitation, found a steward of the palace, and told him to hand it to Ou Zanghua personally.

The steward responded and left the palace.
　The author solemnly declares: There is no cultivation of immortality in this book! There is no cultivation of immortality! There is no cultivation of immortality! It’s just that this sword technique is called this name.

　　I would like to recommend a book by a friend in the group: Is there any progress in hunting demons in the United States?
