Who is this Monk Daoyan who can make Chen Yunfu stunned and lost his mind just by hearing his name?

This is because Yao Guangxiao was really a strange person in the early Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Laosi was the first hero of the rebellion, a master of dragon-slaying skills, the chief editor of the Yongle ceremony, and retired as a duke.

After his death, he was given the posthumous title Gongjing and entered the Ming Ancestral Temple as a civil servant. He was the first person in the Ming Dynasty.

There is no need to introduce too much about Yao Guangxiao. Even people who are relatively unfamiliar with the history of the Ming Dynasty will be more or less familiar with this name. Who makes this black monk already tied to Emperor Yongle.

Such a master actually came to Tianjie Temple?

Chen Yunfu really couldn't remember any connection between Yao Guangxiao and Tianjie Temple. Although he knew the history of the Ming Dynasty, he didn't know the detailed life history of every celebrity before he made a fortune and did great things.

The only thing that can be known is that Yao Guangxiao is Zhu Laosi's chief aide.

"He is not staying in Beijing to advise Zhu Laosi on what to do in Nanjing."

These days, Beijing should be called Shuntian Prefecture and Beiping City. Chen Yunfu was a latecomer, so he thought so in his heart.

With doubts, Chen Yunfu followed Qingchi through the corridor and moved towards the Diamond Palace.

Tianjie Temple is so huge that it has exceeded people's understanding of ordinary temples.

As they walked from the backyard to the front yard, they passed through the Zhongshan Pavilion, which had more than thirty houses on the east and west corridors and a huge fruit tree garden.

Relying on the memory in his mind, Chen Yunfu knew where this so-called Zhongshan Pavilion was.

It was the ‘diplomatic district’ ​​of the Ming Dynasty at this time.

There is a sign hanging outside every house in Zhongshan Pavilion, with the names of different countries on the sign.

The powerful Ming Dynasty was on the throne, and envoys from vassal states came to pay tribute in an endless stream every year. After these people came to Nanjing, they would be led by officials from the Ministry of Rites to visit the Tianjie Temple to learn the etiquette of the court and some basic Chinese.

During this period, you will be forced to live in Tianjie Temple.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not have a good temper, and he was by no means lenient to foreigners. When he was still under the rule of King Wu, he conquered Fujian, and during the Guangdong and Guangxi periods, he slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people from Tianfang, which was even worse than Kublai Khan.

Not to mention more concessions.

The reputation of killing is so great that it is powerful in the west and east.

While passing the Zhongshan Pavilion, Chen Yunfu saw a familiar name of a country.

Tamerlane Khanate.

It seems that at this time, Lame Wolf was also murmuring against Lao Zhu.

After walking through the embassy area, we arrived at the core palace area of ​​Tianjie Temple. The Vajra Palace sits here, and it is magnificent. Countless monks have gathered at this moment. Chen Yunfu can see that there are many people walking around outside the temple.

People in the palace.

There are the eunuchs in the imperial department and the imperial guards of the pro-military Duwei Mansion.

The former is the eunuch, and the latter is the predecessor of Jinyiwei.

The Qinjun Duwei Mansion was in charge of the Imperial Guards within the palace, and there was also the Yiluan Division in charge of the emperor's outings. When the two merged, they became the Jinyi Guards.

Lao Zhu had a special liking for Tianjie Temple. Basically, he would patrol the temple once a month, so he simply left a security team here to welcome him.

Therefore, Tianjie Temple not only looks like a traditional temple, but also has some official atmosphere.

Who knows that there is a plaque of Seng Lusi hanging on the small corridor house at the side of Jingang Palace.

The Senglu Division is affiliated to the Ministry of Rites and is in charge of temples all over the world. It is responsible for the issuance and management of monks' monks' plates. It is a six-level structure. His agency office is located in Tianjie Temple.

It is a veritable institution directly managed by the central ministries and commissions.

There are many famous paintings and poetry plaques hanging outside the King Kong Palace. What Chen Yunfu saw when he entered the door was a poem "Yu Tianjie Temple" written by Gao Qi, the former editor of the Imperial History of the Han Dynasty.

"The rain has passed over the imperial city, and the fragrance has condensed in the secluded Buddhist world. Birds are springing in the orchard, and doves are chirping in the flower palace at noon. Thousands of shoes have gathered together with the bell, and thousands of lamps have flowed into the mirror. I have stayed in Zen residences and travels, and I don't realize that I have been flooded for a long time."

It can be said that to sum up now, Tianjie Temple is called the first temple in the world. This Buddhist teaching has not been shown much, but it has a strong official spirit, poetic spirit and elegant spirit.

After entering the Vajra Hall, Chen Yunfu immediately saw his master in this body, Master Zongyuan, who gave him the name Daoming.

By the way, I also saw the only one among the hundreds of eminent monks in the hall who was wearing black robes and looked out of place.

No need to ask any more questions.

This should be the so-called prime minister in black in later generations, Yao Guangxiao.

The Dharma name is Daoyan.

Well, he is the same generation as Chen Yunfu.

Chen Yunfu felt happy when he thought about this seniority relationship.

This is my senior brother. As close as we are, it would be best if we could recognize him as a good big brother.

If you hug this thick leg, you will be able to live a Yongle Dynasty smoothly.

Qingchi saluted Zongyuan.

"Host, everyone is here."

Zong Yuan nodded and waved his hand when a young novice rang the bell. The bell was loud and deep, which played a role in calming the mind. Chen Yunfu also temporarily suppressed all the messy thoughts in his heart, stood in the queue, and found his own place.

Be quiet.

Zong Yuan's voice was the only voice left in the entire hall.

"Daoyan traveled around the world for seventeen years and mastered the three teachings. Now he returns from his journey and hopes to magnify my Buddhist teachings."

As he spoke, Zong Yuan clasped his hands and bowed to Yao Guangxiao.

The latter did not dare to show respect to the elder, so he bowed and returned the courtesy, saying that the elder's words were serious.

After the ceremony, he saluted again towards the monks in the hall.

Chen Yunfu also followed the others and returned the courtesy, but looked at Yao Guangxiao with curious eyes.

I gritted my teeth as I looked at it.

Yao Guangxiao doesn't look like a good person.

Isn't it? There is a hairless head with double triangular eyes, like a tiger. If it weren't for a monk's robe and a ring on his forehead, he would look more like a fierce underworld gold medal thug.

Moreover, as the eyes moved, there was occasionally a sinister aura revealed.

Chen Yunfu estimated that in this world, Yao Guangxiao was able to travel around the world for seventeen years, and he probably played a lot of tricks like Buddha and fire.

In other words, my hands were probably stained with a lot of blood.

He is a cruel person.

Just when Chen Yunfu was secretly sizing up Yao Guangxiao, the latter also noticed Chen Yunfu's gaze keenly, but he did not react at all. He continued to recite Buddhist scriptures and Zen principles, and he was very immersed in what he said, making all the hundreds of monks in the temple listen.

Fascinated.

This is a real skill.

The lecture lasted for nearly an hour, and then everyone in the hall woke up from their sleep. They all saluted Daoyan and said that they had benefited a lot.

Even Master Zongyuan was amazed.

"Daoyan's teachings can be said to have penetrated deeply and taught me."

Yao Guangxiao didn't dare to take it seriously. As he bowed, he looked sideways in Chen Yunfu's direction and smiled.

"Elder, I wonder who that little friend is?"

Zong Yuan smiled when he saw it.

"This is Lao Na's young disciple, whose dharma name is Daoming."

"The name of the law is clear?"

Chen Yunfu is a generation with the word "dao", and his full name is "daoming", but isn't it just a single name with the word "ming"?

This is Zhu Yuanzhang's partial favor, otherwise he would not be able to give him this word if he was avoiding it.

Yao Guangxiao had a smile on his lips. He had noticed it clearly while he was reciting Buddhist teachings just now.

This junior fellow student named Dao Ming looked at him over and over thirty times.

This also attracted Yao Guangxiao's attention and interest.

"Elder, the young monk and Junior Brother Daoming seem to have a fate. During their temporary stay, I didn't know..."

Zong was far away and it became clear. He nodded and smiled.

"Then how about I grievance Dao Yan and temporarily stay at Dao Ming's place."

As the two chatted, they found a place for Yao Guangxiao to live, but Chen Yunfu blinked after hearing this.

What's the matter, are you roommates with Yao Guangxiao?
